Like I said, you only need the base notename to transpose, not the symbol.

But if not enough people want what I want, I will just withdraw my
request. It appears that now you can typeset using any font you want.
If I can get it working in cygwin I'll just import the Jazzcord font
set and try to get something working there.

Thanks.
