Well, Kieren *did* explicitly state that he wants LilyPond to engrave according to the engraving rules of a given publishing house. Or, put more generally, for a given context he needs to change LilyPond's default appearance with regard to slur attachment. > >> Any help would be appreciated. > Shrug.
