Re: making midi output ignore accidentals?

[Mats Bengtsson]

Maybe it's easier (and better) to input the music the way you want it to 
sound
and make the accidentals invisible in the printed output if you want.
\override Accidental #'transparent = ##t
One big advantage if such an approach is that you easily can print the
music according to some other typesetting practice, if you wish.
