This nice aspect of fingerings is due to the parser knowing what a 
fingering looks like. But this is defined as being a single digit, 
so you only have ten things you can ask for (corresponding to 0 .. 9).


Writing your own version of fingering::calc-text lets you choose what 
these ten things are, but you can't get any more than ten. 

So you are limited to ten combinations, which is nowhere near enough.

Fingerings with Flat Symbol

2009-04-20 Thread Jonathan Townes
Hello
I'm transcribing jazz solos and am searching for an efficient means of
notating scale-tone numbers above notes, incorporating sharps and
flats, e.g. 1 3 sharp5 flat7. I realize I'm able to use text markup
commands for this. However, the use of fingerings would be much faster
and require less typing.

So, the question is: how do I append flat and sharp symbols to
fingering numbers?

Thanks,
Jonathan
