It doesn't. Note that a note name means something different in chord mode than it does in note mode and consequently there are different tokens produced in different modes from note names. Assigning arbitrary (and consequently mode-independent) meanings to note names is not immediately compatible with the way in which this is done currently. While it looks not all too difficult to change that, it's not currently supported. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
