Re: Slur shapes

[Mats Bengtsson]

It seems that you have looked at the snippet 
http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=639
The command \shapeSlur which is used in this example is not included in 
LilyPond by default, but is rather defined within the example file 
itself. To use it, you have to copy the lines from "shapeSlur =" down to 
"cords))" into the top of your own .ly file.
