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
8 * Generate TeX titles from MudelaHeader

15 strange stretching and compressing of 8's
17 * Doc Mutopia (Music To The People)
19 * context in spring-spacer.
21 * don't count bars which are not on first beat.
23 * generate stuff in out/default, out/sun5-irix etc iso out/
26 * derive lily_stream, Dstream, texstream from ostream?
28 * check libtool, automake
30 * have make dist produce tarball in out/ directory.

105 \melodic { \id "Staff" ""; c'4 g'4 }
110 * emacs-mode for mudela
117 * add to MIDI output:
124 - adapt for multiple font sizes.
125 - make separate class for Grace_*_engravers
126 (which is at Voice_gravs level)

180 read AFM/TFM directly, for text too)
181 - use MF to generate rules.
182 - rewrite : make a metafont iso font
185 - Ledger lines, should be separate item: Ledger_lines, Ledger_lines

191 - bring Collision::do_pre_processing to haircutter
192 - left/right note balls should be handled by Collision:
193 < \multi 2; { \stem 1; <b c> } { <f as b> } >
196 - merge key{item} & localkey{item}?
197 - do conventional keys (C G A, F B E, a e fis, d as des, etc ),
198 besides lists of flats/sharps, possibly via declaration
200 - key undo: \key bes; .. . \key; should print natural
201 - special key: \key bes 'b bis';
202 - spacing, national styles?
205 - redo Notehead to allow digits as heads
206 - add a \tablature {} lexer mode for easy entering
209 * should adjust stemlength for flag number.

252 * bracket (bracketplets)
256 * configure pitch_byte
260 * rest name configurable
266 * Do RTTI i.s.o. static_name(), name() and request-junk.
270 * A range for context errors (eg. mark both { and }. )
272 * lyric in staff (sharpsharp in staff, text below)
274 * fix Egler definitions ( see tex/eglerdefs.tex )
