Hm, if we do this together with the 2:3 syntax change, then we would suddenly be able to write: \time 4:3 which would be equivalent to: \time 3/4 That's a bit confusing. BTW, if we start adding new types, it would be nice to create a new 'type' data structure, to be used in function signatures. The data structure would contain a type-checking predicate, a name (displayed when type-check fails), and perhaps a type ID for the lexer. This would allow more complex types, e.g. 'sequential music', 'single note or chord', 'pair of numbers' (as in #'(1 . 3)), etc; perhaps the system could be used for define-context-properties.scm as well. -- Erik _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
