Hi everybody,

I've been using Lilypond for a couple of years now, 
but this is the first time I use this mailing list.
I tried to see if anyone wrote something about my issue,
I have not found anything relevant, but please excuse me
if I just did not look well enough, and this happens to
be the 200th thread about this issue.

It's about relative mode. I continuously compute intervals 
to see whether the next note is going to be the upper or the lower one,
I write

c f g a

when I intent

c f, g a

so I spend quite some time checking the output and correcting such
mistakes in large and complex scores. 

Wouldn't it be useful to have a notation to say "the closest f downwards"
or the "closest a upwards" rather than having to compute intervals and to 
see whether the comma/quote is required or not ? A way of using the 
relative mode by giving the direction explicitly rather than making 
it implicit by the distance from the last note.

Am I the only one with this (minor) frustration ? Is there something
that does exactly what I have in mind, and which I never found ?

Cheers,

Darius.
