The point is that for the Artemis competition we have to start with
unmodified Lilypond input. So we have to recognise, say
c'^"rit." or c'^"rall" etc., and convert to \tempo 4=60 or
whatever.
I think I can do that.
The hard dynamics one is that at present to notate a smooth
crescendo/decrescendo on a single note you have to do something like:
<< { c'1 } \\
{s16\pp \< s4. \! s16 \ff \s16 \> s4. \! s16 \pp } >>
because there's no appropriate language construct.
That creates a new voice, and attaches the dynamics to it instead
of to the note. To produce good midi output, you need to change this
to something like,
{ c16 \pp \< ~ c16 ~ c16 ~ c16 ~ c16 ~ c16 ~ c16 \! ~ c16 \ff ~ c16 \>
~ c16 ~ c16 ~ c16 ~ c16 ~ c16 ~ c16 \! ~ c16 \pp }
and even that doesn't give as smooth a transition as one would like.
Any ideas?
