Users, I’m looking for a good name for a rest style that is like the default except for using a quarter rest shaped like a mirrored Z. I’ve seen examples in 19th-C. Italian opera and 20th-C. American hymnals, so names based on time, place, publisher, or genre do not fit very well. Although, I also see the “classical” quarter rest in a late 19th-C. American hymnal, so maybe I shouldn’t worry about universality so much. My best idea is “z” based on its appearance, but it seems strange to name a whole style after just one rest. — Dan _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
