Sometimes I think using "(" and ")" to indicate slurs leads to
misunderstandings, they are read as a sort of brackets (they are not)
Ofcourse it's conveniant, but I wonder, if doing like below would lead
to the same misinterpretation:
startSlur = #(make-span-event 'SlurEvent START)
stopSlur = #(make-span-event 'SlurEvent STOP)
{
a'-\startSlur b' c''-\stopSlur
}
Cheers,
Harm
