Hello,
may be it's a silly idear, but I realy like the way you simplified the
notation in lily, and like if it comes beter.
IMHO the tuplet notation is too heavy (I'm shure you must use use a
shortcup or something like that in emacs, but i'm a vim user and I
don't know how to do).
Here is my idear. Why not concidering tuplets just like an other
duration suyntax with an option to specified that it's a tuplet ?
Can't we use someting like that :
a8{2/3} r b d g b a8 g16{6/7} a f d r b g
would stand's for
\times 2/3 {a8 r b} \times 2/3 {d g b} a8 \times 6/7 {g16 a f d r b g}
Do you see what I mean (sorry it's realy hard for me to speak
english) ?
The syntax : Xy{z/n}
With the 'y' you know the duration of the notes (whitch is alway the
same for all the tuplet), with the 'n' you know that the 'n' notes (or
rest) just after are in the tuplet.
Of course, it's a litle less readable, but :
- It's smaller ;
- it's very usefull if you have a lot of times to enter (there's
already a synbtax for that, i know) ;
- it's very very usefull if you have long succesion of times and non-
times notes ;
- we can use the both system.
Unfortunatly, i'm physiotherapist, I can tried to help you if you back
hurt's, or if you have problems of wrong position while playing your
instrument (or computer :o) but I don't know how to wrote code...
Thank's
Olivier.
