Well, why I _want_ it is for much the same reason as why, if you want the note that is one semitone in-between C and D, sometimes you want it to be a C sharp and sometimes a D flat... :-) Another reason could be that if your quarter-tones are _approximate_ rather than precise, it can be helpful to know which of the 12 standard notes you are bending. Graham Breed wrote me a nice note suggesting defining some kind of override or tweak to redefine the symbol on the fly, but considering it I think I'll probably go with 'cheaty' definitions of pitch alterations, like +/- 101/400 (or 1001/4000 or whatever seems most appropriate:-) _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
