1 Features you cannot find in the doco as working, should be mentioned her.
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
9 bugs introduced in pl68:
23 * implement better breaking algorithm
27 * use Hungarian throughout code
29 * decent TeX page layout
33 * a Hands on tutorial [HKN]
37 * Convert all ref/bib stuff into BibTeX.
39 * Output class, handles : (smallish)
40 - help text /(c) notice?
42 - warning /errors/progress
43 - abort on error/warning; exit status
44 - quiet/ignore-version options
47 * elaborate Staff_side baseclass:
52 * Output an output format independent (ofi) typeset file; and
53 make ofi2 TeX, MusixTex, PostScript, Ascii... interpreters. (difficult)
54 - poor man's ascii output possible?
55 - MusixTeX output possible? (would have to be done before break calc.)
57 - Common Music Notation
58 - PostScript output (esp. Beams, Slurs, etc)
59 - Move PScore, Items, Spanners etc. into libmutype.a
62 * separate Score_elem settings in user-settable (properties
63 .. ) and non-user-settable part. Maybe use something like X-resources:
64 "Staff=oboe*dir: 0", "Staff=*.Voice_group=solo*dir: 1"
66 * TeX spanners , use texbeam.cc as an example (smallish)
71 * Rewrite Stem, Beam and Rhythmic_grouping (hairy)
74 - doc on Rhythmic_grouping
75 - general shaving on Beam and Stem
77 - abbreviations [c2 c2]1/2
78 - separate visual from rhythmic info even more
81 * Redo MIDI output to use Registers: (Difficult)
82 - remember more horizontal info than melodics:
91 - rename mf fonts to avoid conflicts with musixtex
93 - use own fonts/update musixtex fonts/find older (c)-less fonts
94 - hack up mf sources for decent spacing info (and then
95 read AFM/TFM directly, for text too)
99 - Ledger lines, should be separate item: Ledger_lines, Ledger_lines_reg
100 - set different line sizes / thicknesses
101 - stem down too far right
102 - beam stem showthrough, inter beam sizes (french vs german style)
105 - bring Collision::do_pre_processing to haircutter
106 - left/right note balls should be handled by Collision:
107 < \multivoice { \stem 1; <b c> } { <f as b> } >
110 - merge key{item} & localkey{item}?
111 - do conventional keys (C G A, F B E, a e fis, d as des, etc ),
112 besides lists of flats/sharps, possibly via declaration
114 - key undo: \key bes; .. . \key; should print natural
115 - special key: \key 'b bes bis';
116 - spacing, national styles?
119 * Duration -> Musical_duration, typedef Rational Duration?
123 tekst staat erg ver van notenbalken af
125 waarom geen ; achter dingen in \paper? (\textwidth 180\mm)
126 (sowieso: wanneer wel en geen ; ?)
128 Onduidelijk wanneer wel en geen \ voor een woord. Maak liever
133 * spurious Weird stem size warnings
135 * staccato dot positions.
139 * should adjust stemlength for flag number.
141 * lilypond - -> crash
143 * standchen triool beam up/down
145 * (where are the) gcc compile warnings on linux
154 FURTHER FOR ORCHESTRAL SCORE:
158 * barnumbers, markers
160 * abbreviations c4=16
164 * c4 4 4 4 for c4 c4 c4 c4?
166 * neatly (and readably) expressing concurrent
171 * should have \require{package.ly} to read req'd packages.
183 * relative mode for pitch entering
185 * bracket (bracketplets)
189 * configure pitch_byte
193 * rest name configurable
197 * subtime with Subtle_reqs
201 * Do RTTI i.s.o. static_name(), name() and request-junk.
205 * A range for context errors (eg. mark both { and }. )
207 * text in staff (sharpsharp in staff, text below)
209 * fix Egler definitions ( see tex/eglerdefs.tex )
211 * replace Score_elem member access by get()/set() methods, to enable
212 future embedded code.
214 * --fast/--draft: leave out constraints
216 * write Dynamic_line (to group dynamics horizontally)
218 * write Rest_collision
220 * use Real for y positions.
222 * shared lib on Solaris too.
224 * bugreport to doc++ devel: struct not in class hier; public
227 * get rid of init_end;
229 * cleanup lily-proto.hh and proto.hh
231 * half-sharps, half-flats
233 * adaptive accidental spacing.
235 * unix style paths for LILYINCLUDE env
237 * indentable stream as baseclass for TeX stream, lily stream, Dstream.
239 * handle EOF graciously in error messages.
241 * caching Item/spanner dimensions.
243 * centered whole rest
245 * caching breakpoints / saving them.
247 * use dstream feature in mi2mu
249 * qtor, btor, mtor-> tor( QUIET_ver ), tor( DEBUG_ver ), etc.
250 - use tors feature in lily (?)
254 * declare notenametab?
256 * midi esp.: use I32 iso int where 32 bits are needed (or assumed...)
260 * read from mmap directly: bugreport to flex developers->
261 yy_scan_buffer in C++..
263 * binsearch/hash for identifiers
265 * stafftypes: voice names/ instrument names.
267 * Decent TeX titledefs (\tempo, \metron, etc. )
269 * C meter iso 4/4, idem for alla breve, etc.
271 * textspanner: center position
278 * use (char *) iso. String for communication between lexer and
281 * configure idealspacing: arithmetic spacing
283 * LilyPond .deb. Other packaging methods?
288 * Score_elem structure.
292 * config of TeX macros
300 * auxilliary file for caching info.
302 * Reg_configure_request
304 * slur parts as a script
308 * put scripts on bars
312 * better beamslope calculation: QLP for beams?
316 * clean solution for staffsize in items.
323 * check out CORBA for Score_elems?
325 * derive PCol from Score_elem? More in Score_elems? Spacing?
327 * scoping in Lexer: do general id- assignments in mudela.
331 * create libmudela, or liblily_frontend
333 * move MIDI stuff (including Quantization) to a ANSI C libmidi library.
335 * use an embedded language: Python
341 * y -dims in internote?
343 * merge Atom and Symbol?
345 * merge common code of Item, Atom/Molecule
347 * Spacing_request for manually adjusting spacing
350 * caching breakpoints
356 * used fixedpoint arithmetic for min. energy.
358 * default convert mudela-file.ly -> mudela-file.tex
359 - rename {standchen,scsii-menuetto,...}.tex
361 * stack scripts in chords:
362 % fingering: footing:
363 < a-4 c-2 g-1 > < c-\ltoe e-\lheel >
365 * parameterised scripts for fingering and footing:
367 % toe to bheel four to five
373 (where "to" is a tiny bow)
375 * move towards incremental algorithms.
