LilyPond users are lucky. Most of the time, in music that isn't (to use an academic term) "crazy and weird", LilyPond just does it right and you don't have to worry. If in doubt with things like beams and stems, leave it "as is", because it is probably at least acceptable. Every musical style has its own set of expectations. When tweaking for easier reading, make sure to look at it "through the eyes of an experienced musician in this style" as much as you can. Whatever the style is, take your guidance from well-known and well-regarded old scores in that style whenever you can. Good scores that were made before computers became widespread are almost always the best how-to that you can get. -- David Rogers _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
