Hi Jean,
we have a very short section about grob-transformer in the Extending
Manual. Probably too concise.
Your text is more clear.
Many thanks again for the entire text!
I know you like pattern matching, though imho it makes things not
always easier for users.
Even for me - I don't understand that (x x)-line:
\override Arpeggio.positions =
#(grob-transformer
'positions
(lambda (grob original)
(match original
((a . b) (cons (- a 5.0) (+ b 5.0)))
(x x)))) ;; <==
I'd likely code it like:
\override Arpeggio.positions =
#(grob-transformer
'positions
(lambda (grob original)
(cons (- (car original) 5.0) (+ (cdr original) 5.0))))
Best,
Harm
