Firstly & most importantly a big thankyou to everyone involved in Lilypond for such an 
amazing program - and free too! Please keep up the good work.

I am involved with engraving music for the accordion, particularly the piano accordion 
with stradella bass. As the actual notes that play when you depress a chord button are 
dictated by the instrument rather than the music, the notes printed are a matter of 
convention. 

For example, a chord of c major in the bass is conventionally represented as middle c 
with the g and e below it. On my instrument the notes that actually play are middle c 
with the e above and g below. 

Is is possible for me to redefine the chords in Lilypond so that I get the right 
inversion automatically, and the right chord name to go with it? I've tried any number 
of things and I just can't get it to work. Either the right chord come out with the 
wrong name or I can't get the right inversion at all.

Any pointers would be very gratefully received.

Tim Hucker
