;;
;; \applySwing swingDiv weightList music
;;
;; \applySwingWithOffset swingDiv offset weightList music
;;
;; \tripletFeel swingDiv music
;;
;; See the function docstrings and usage examples below for more
;; information.
;; Originally inspired by the discussion on LilyPond issue #687
;; ,
;; especially the contributions by "chicagogrooves" and "Arvid".
;;; Usage examples:
;; %% swung eigth or sixteenth notes
;;
;; \tripletFeel 8 { c8 c }
;; %% result: { c8*4/3 c8*2/3 },
;; %% corresponding to \times 2/3 { c4 c8 }
;;
;; \tripletFeel 16 { c16 c }
;; %% result: { c16*4/3 c16*2/3 },
;; %% corresponding to \times 2/3 { c8 c16 }
;;
;;
;; %% samba swing
;;
;; \applySwing 16 #'(3 2 2 3) { c16 c c c }
;; %% result corresponding to \times 4/5 { c16. c16 c c16. }
;;
;; \applySwing 16 #'(4 3 3 4) { c16 c c c } % smoother
;; %% result corresponding to \times 8/7 { c16 c32. c c16 }
;;; Known limitations:
;; * \repeat constructs in music (even \repeat unfold) are not taken
;; into consideration when determining note timing. This will lead
;; to problems unless the durations of all repeated parts are
;; integer multiples of the swing cycle duration.
;;
;; * These functions are oblivious to time signatures and measures.
;;
;; That is why offsets need to be supplied by the user if music
;; starts off-beat.
;;
;; * Grace notes are ignored and simply left unaffected.
;;
;; * Treatment of notes shorter than swingDiv is ad-hoc and may not be
;; what you want.
;;
;; In some detail: \applySwing operates by shifting the boundary
;; between two events if it falls on an off-beat multiple of
;; swingDiv. Assuming forward shift (backward shift works
;; analogously), this is done by first lengthening the earlier
;; event, then shortening the following event(s) by the same amount.
;;
;; Notes shorter than swingDiv never trigger the first step, hence
;; all notes in the following examples remain straight:
;;
;; \tripletFeel 8 { c16 c c c }
;; \tripletFeel 8 { c16 c c8 }
;;
;; However, if they appear after a note that has already been
;; lengthened, they will be shortened in the second step. Therefore,
;;
;; \tripletFeel 8 { c8 c16 c }
;;
;; will result in timing corresponding to \times 2/3 { c4 c16 c }.
