Dear Werner, and Dear all,

I dont want to set NDT for new compositions. I just want to enjoy
diversity of engraving, with their different valid points. And surely
we will continue to play barock and polypnohic music for many years.

In the mean time, I had and deeper and serious look to Scheme and
Python. This is nothing for me :-(
Nevertheless, I have questions, who knows...

1 - in the User-manual of Lilypond, chapter 1.1, there is a script for
"Ez_numbers_engraver" This is interesting of course, but I cant figure
out how to modify it for letters (all would be easier with a table).

2 - in usr/schare/lilypod/current/tablature.scm I miss many things,
one of them is: where is it declared that the lines representing the
strings are to be drawn?

3 - the concept of jianpu is nice. But I also swim in python-code.

4 - chapter 2.2.77 in internals refers to printing noteHead in words,
but here too, :-/

Well these are my first questions, maybe somebody wants to help... But
if I go ths way of DIY, I will have many questions. Probably too much
questions.

All of these are valid points.  However, it seems to me that he wants
to actually *add* features to this tablature, which I consider three
hundred years too late.  Similar to figured bass, Neue Deutsche
Orgeltabulatur can't handle more elaborated music, so there were
really good reasons to change to normal, modern notation.

Dear Karl, Werner and All,

Thanks Karl these are two points.

Also stretching the score is really a poit in concert (not mentionned
that another aproach of the matter is recommended from pedagogists). I
had a try with OO-calc and OO-writer, the score reduces to half of
traditional score, and more is even possible. This is huge. Vierne's
Toccata has 8 pages, these are 3 turns, quite difficult to manage. in
TAB this would be 4 letter-pages, that fits on the musik stand. No
turns.
Of course a musician can and should learn by heart, but the stressing
life doesnt allow to learn everything by heart. And I dont want to
work anymore with assistants.

For programming, I am definitely not the man. Thats why I would pay.

Anyway, the end of the year is at the door, so I wish all a good start in 2018.

There can be multiple reasons why one would do that:

. the somewhat academic point in being able to do that

. when transcribing things I've found that that is easier if I first
can get something that looks similar with the piece I'm transcribing,
and then convert it into something a performer would like

. the notation suited the performers at that time (1550-1700), so
there might be some value in beeing able to understand why they used it
and beeing able to use it oneself, and for that end, beeing able to
make a cleaner version of a source tabulature

I can't answer this, sorry, but I guess that everything can be done in
Scheme – if you are skilled enough.

Dear Werner,

sadly, you are right. I had a closer look at what I thought to be an
''es'' but is a ''dis'',

Nevertheless, in my idea it should be the user who would choose
alternatives (historical (only sharps and b), my-way (flats, sharps
and even double-falts and d-sharps), and alternative.

I see python is used for jianpu, but I cant determine what it does
(what it uses from lily for the output, and if it reads from a
standard ly-file)

Is it better I serch a scheme programmer or a python-man?

I don't understand this sentence.  Please rephrase and use quotes to
properly make a distinction between note names and normal text!

Looking into the scan of the autograph, I only see alterations one

Hello Werner and All,

I have readen your article. Many thanks anyway. I didnt thought that
the TAB was the standard notation before our actual system.
About the flat in the new german TAB, I would be pleased if you
confirm me, or not: in Scheidemann's Judentanz, I read the (recurrent)
es as it is and not as a s. Although german paleology is not my
strength, I am waiting to your confirmation.
For, if this is how I read, the es could be the hook toward left (the
is anyway toward right).

greetings

It's an interesting topic indeed – even J.S. Bach has used Neue
Deutsche Orgeltabulatur.  As an example, see page 300 in the following

OK.  Lilypond doesn't support this.  What *could* be used as a
starting point is (external) support for jianpu; cf. the thread
starting with

  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2017-08/msg00395.html

For proper rendering you have to create a special Fraktur font that
contains letters with `Niederstriche' to indicate an upward alteration
by a semitone, together with the other special symbols used in the
Neue Deutsche Orgeltabulatur – AFAICS this is not covered by SMUFL.

  https://w3c.github.io/smufl/gitbook/

Unfortunately, I can't help further.
