I needed the (seldom used) makam saba - not predefined in the maqam
group. So I consulted the manual.
At the end of subchapter "Arabic key signatures" in chapter "2.10.2
Arabic music" on page
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/arabic-music
there is in subchapter "Selected Snippets" a snippet example. It is very
peculiar that in this example is not even a single quarter tone.
Peculiar and totally displaced and useless in this arabic notation
section dealing with the special case of quarter tone notation!
At least I found a useful example for keyAlterations in subchapter
"Makam example" of the chapter "World music" on page
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/snippets/world-music.
I would recommend to add a copy of that snippet to the subchapter
"Selected Snippets" of chapter "2.10.2 Arabic music". That would be a
time saver ... <http://www.dict.cc/englisch-deutsch/saver.html>
