There are a few things that need to be done before we make the patch. 1) Make a table of all the crescendo and decrescendo forms, so we can see at a glance the missing/broken pieces. 2) Make a patch for the docs for v. 2.12. 3) Make a patch for v. 2.13 (when it's started) to get the appropriate symmetry for all forms. This will require posting the table from 1) on -user and getting feedback from users. 4) Make a patch for convert-ly, which will do two things: a) fix the problem you've identified for the previous convert-ly rule for 2.12 b) Make a correct convert-ly rule for 2.13. Frederic, are you up for it? Carl On 1/31/09 2:24 PM, "Trevor Daniels" <address@hidden> wrote:
Carl Is fixing this up a suitable task for a frog?

There is a similar symmetry between dimTextDim (persists) and \dim (once only) but not between \dimTextDecresc and \decresc \dimTextDecr and \decr because \decr is a synonym for \> and \decresc seems not to have been implemented. This seems a pity, as the symmetry is broken. Perhaps this should be corrected in 2.13. The docs for 2.12 don't mention \cresc or \dim. This could (should) be fixed now.I did not know \cresc \dim forms, very well! Then convert-ly should convert \setTextCresc to \cresc, shouldn't it? Too sad for \decresc and \decr... As a frog, is there something I could do to fix this? Frédéric
