Thanks, I'll take a closer look at the EH notation and see if I can alter it. Hans

The two work differently. Both factorize the ratio (relative to the base notes). Sagittal converts that into an equal temperament, and then assigns a string (not always a single glyph) to each step of the equal temperament. (This is not quite how Sagittal should work.) For Helmholtz notation, the factorized ratio maps to a set of glyphs used for notating small intervals, one for each prime number. Then it combines those glyphs to get a string for the full accidental. The same process should work for Johnston notation.
