1 Features you cannot find in the doco as working, should be mentioned here.
3 This is an assorted collection of stuff that will be done, might be
4 done, or is an idea that I want to think about
6 Most of the items are marked in the code as well, with full explanation.
7 grep for TODO and ugh/ugr/urg
10 * junk My_lily_parser::abbrev_beam_type_i_
14 * make sure all ex's have a mudela-version
16 * notes almost touch barline: whitespace at the begin of the bar
17 should be at fixed at at least (about) one interline.
18 hack at spring-spacer.cc:662 doesn't work anymore
20 * do rest-collisions for Multi_measure_rests as well.
22 * split error/warning in error/warning/non_fatal_error
24 * add a Duration_convert member to Duration_iter to set parameters.
25 Junk global duration settings.
29 * fix .txt rules / make dist from freshly configured tar-ball
31 * document use of ly2dvi more prominently
33 * clean up abbrev/plet/beam/abbrevbeam/duration mess in parser.
35 * minimum length second part broken tie

44 * fix variable define/lookup parser global<->paper
46 * fix position of bar number
48 * fix position of brace in conjunction with bracket
50 * fix title/instrument placements; see input/test/title.ly
52 * <\voiceone c4. \voicetwo c4>
54 * add full cello suites to web site (kom op, Maarten!)
60 - abbreviation-beam -> (measured/unmeasured) tremolo
62 * libtoolize flowerlib
65 * robustify Beam (in case of no stems, 32nd notes)
67 * check for groff / troff/ nroff et
69 * use kpsepath to find all TeX dirs
75 - break-up heavily-nested score blocks
77 * disable spaces in TeX stuff
79 * handle ^C for tmp/file creation.
81 * dots & rest collisions.
83 * add a screenshot to the website. :)
91 * naming Mozarella, Madeira, Muella?
95 * the warning about the negative slur/tie length appears twice
98 * The `3' in the meter key is a one or two pixels too thin (at 600dpi)
101 * the tenuto script is too long and too thin
103 * the bracket is ugly (wings are too parabolic, should be more circular)
104 * better hshift (dots, distance, head dependent)
106 * stem len adjustable
110 - automatically add a \version if not present.
113 - fix convert-mudela -e *.ly ;
114 - convert-mudela -e empty.ly
117 * clefs (AG): The "8" should appear closer to the actual clef,
120 * give Items/Spanners access to unbroken originals
122 * generalised scopes for Parser/identifiers.
126 * scoping for properties
129 \multi 2 < { \stemup .. } { \stemdown .. } >

159 - optimal pagebreaking.
161 * put errorlevel in Input class
163 * AFM for font input?
168 * tried egcs 1.0.2: failed on lily/stem.cc -> flower/include/interval.hh
169 should narrow down and send bug report
171 * gcc 2.8.1: see ice and RESIZE_ICE
173 * xdvi: PS in magnifying glass.
175 * GNU patch 2.1: hardcoded limit of 1024 to the linelength
177 * GNU diff 2.7: diff -rN does not see a new directory with empty file
179 * GNU patch 2.1: <must find simple example> if patch chokes on a
180 hunk, or on allegedly unsorted hunks in a diff, it may stop
181 without a trace of failure (create .rej file, print error or
182 dump core) and just ignore any further diffs.
189 - detect of 16/8 bit files

307 - do conventional keys (C G A, F B E, a e fis, d as des, etc ),
308 besides lists of flats/sharps, possibly via declaration
310 - key undo: \key bes; .. . \key; should print natural
311 - special key: \key bes 'b bis';
