I'm not quite sure how to search online for this, hence my asking here.
I'm doing a little bit of arranging of some baroque pieces for specific
instruments, which usually requires some transposition. I can transpose
within the lilypond file so that the output score has the correct
(transposed) notes, but what I really want is to have the transposed notes
in the lilypond file itself. This means I can print out the score without
needing to transpose anything. So basically I want to change an input
from, say
\transpose c,f {c d e f}
to simply
{f g a bf}
In other words, I want the transposition in the file itself, not just in
the typeset output. Is there a way of doing this - maybe with an external
command (I'm using Linux)?
Thank you very much,
Alasdair
