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 * do rest-collisions for Multi_measure_rests as well.

15 Junk global duration settings.
21 * clean up abbrev/plet/beam/abbrevbeam/duration mess in parser.

26 - handle DISALLOW < penalty > FORCE
27 - discourage breaking of slurs
32 * latex mutopia/los-toros-oboe-16.tex: max memsize
34 * move all hard-coded constants and staffheight dependent to runtime,
35 i.e. init/params.ly. e.g.: stem length params, beam positions
37 * fix position of bar number
39 * fix position of brace in conjunction with bracket
41 * libtoolize flowerlib
47 * robustify Beam (in case of no stems, 32nd notes)
49 * check for groff / troff/ nroff et
51 * use kpsepath to find all TeX dirs
58 - break-up heavily-nested score blocks
60 * disable spaces in TeX stuff

64 * dots & rest collisions.
66 * add a screenshot to the website. :)
74 * naming Mozarella, Madeira, Muella?
78 * the warning about the negative slur/tie length appears twice
81 * The `3' in the meter key is a one or two pixels too thin (at 600dpi)
84 * the tenuto script is too long and too thin
86 * the bracket is ugly (wings are too parabolic, should be more circular)
88 * better hshift (dots, distance, head dependent)
96 - fix convert-mudela -e *.ly ;
97 - convert-mudela -e empty.ly
100 * clefs (AG): The "8" should appear closer to the actual clef,
104 * give Items/Spanners access to unbroken originals
106 * scoping for properties
109 \multi 2 < { \stemup .. } { \stemdown .. } >
113 this modifies \stem for the c2

155 * Fix profiling. gprof bugreport?
157 * GNU patch 2.1: hardcoded limit of 1024 to the linelength
159 * GNU diff 2.7: diff -rN does not see a new directory with empty file
161 * GNU patch 2.1: <must find simple example> if patch chokes on a
162 hunk, or on allegedly unsorted hunks in a diff, it may stop
163 without a trace of failure (create .rej file, print error or
164 dump core) and just ignore any further diffs.

250 make ofi2 TeX, MusiXTex, Display PostScript, PostScript,
251 Ascii... interpreters. (difficult)

289 - merge key{item} & localkey{item}?
290 - do conventional keys (C G A, F B E, a e fis, d as des, etc ),
291 besides lists of flats/sharps, possibly via declaration
293 - key undo: \key bes; .. . \key; should print natural
294 - special key: \key bes 'b bis';
