Martín Carr has made me aware of a problem in the short names for
intervals used a few places in Solfege. This is where "m2" is short
for minor second and M6 is short for minor sixth.

I have used both lower and upper case p for perfect intervals: p10 but P15.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_(music) suggests that uppercase
P is the way to write it. Do you know if uppercase P5 is more common
than p5 for perfect fifth?

I also notice I have used just 4, 5 and 8 for perfect fourth, fifth
and octave, but then p11, p13 and P15 for the perfect 11th (octave +
fourth), perfect 13th (octave + fifth) and double octave. So I am
considering annoying the translators a little by changing to P4, P5
and P8 for consistency, in case they short names are more used in the
future.
