If in A major then I^3-I^11-I^6? Where presumably the D is just a passing note between two inversions of A major chord located on a weak part of the beat and therefore a contrapuntally ambivalent location? Is this a common notation practice in certain circles? i have never seen it before, but rarely fiddle with lead sheets. Try the Lilypond snippet repository. http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Search which has a large amount of useful things that can be looked at for all manner of useful things. Maybe someone else will have a more useful programming insight/ Best of luck
