Hi Brian,

I'm very interested in the work you're doing and I'm willing to contribute.
I purchased a book on jianpu notation and I'm going to compile some
references to compare with. It's looking great so far! I'd just like to
recommend adding a few style options to perhaps improve the look of the
score.

- Number font. Most of my reference material appears to use a sans-serif
rather than serif font for numbers.

- Beam thickness and spacing. It appears a beam should be no thicker than a
barline, and the distance between beams should be about 1/4 the height of a
number.

- Octave change dot position. According to Wikipedia and my reference
material, each note in a chord indeed has its own octave change dot(s), but
the bottom note's dot(s) should go below the beam lines. This allows the
beam lines to stay in the same position relative to the notes. I'm
concerned that the inconsistency might be too jarring for seasoned players.

Seeing how good the score is looking, I suspect you'll be tweaking these
numbers soon enough, and adding these options would be a logical next step.
If you're too encumbered, I'd be happy to implement them myself when
appropriate.

Keep it up!

Staff line is removed and fillRect function is used to draw note/rest

See the snapshot of current implementation below.

Still, adjustment for ties and note positions in the chord are needed and
other stuff like key signature, etc., need to be added.
