Franz-Rudolf,
I do not know how all of the glyphs for lilypond have been made, but I have used the open-source program FontForge to make custom font glyphs. I found the process of making custom glyphs enjoyable, and the FontForge documentation was good. Perhaps, you could take a font that is close in appearance to the flattement and modify it in FontForge, save it as a new font symbol, and use it in lilypond as \markup.

Peace,
David

Hi,


I'm in the process of re-setting suites from Pierre Danican-Philidors op.1. Philidor is one of the few composers who mark exactly where a flattement, i.e. a finger vibrato, should be played. He does this with a wavy line over the corresponding notes.


This sign differs from "\prallprall". In addition, as can be seen in the example, it should be between the two notes.


Can someone help me?

Thanks in advance.


Regards
