1 This is an assorted collection of stuff that will be done, might be
2 done, or is an idea that I want to think about
4 Most of the items are marked in the code as well, with full explanation.
5 grep for TODO and ugh/ugr
10 * faq about mi2mu midi t1.
14 * use Hungarian throughout code
16 * rename mf fonts to avoid conflicts with musixtex
19 * decent TeX page layout
21 * per-pstaff item-widths [JCN]
25 * use own fonts/update musixtex fonts
27 * a Hands on tutorial [HKN]
31 * Output class, handles : (smallish)
32 - help text /(c) notice?
34 - warning /errors/progress
35 - abort on error/warning; exit status
36 - quiet/ignore-version options
39 * elaborate Staff_side baseclass:
44 * Output an output format independent (ofi) typeset file; and
45 make ofi2 TeX, MusixTex, PostScript, Ascii... interpreters. (difficult)
46 - poor man's ascii output possible?
47 - MusixTeX output possible? (would have to be done before break calc.)
49 - PostScript output (esp. Beams, Slurs, etc)
51 * TeX spanners , use texbeam.cc as an example (smallish)
56 * Rewrite Beam and Rhythmic_grouping (hairy)
61 - abbreviations [c2 c2]1/2
62 - separate visual from rhythmic info
64 * Redo MIDI output to use Registers: (Difficult)
65 - remember more horizontal info than melodics:
72 * Duration -> Musical_duration, typedef Rational Duration?
74 **********************
77 \bar || ook dunne streepjes? Sluit de balk niet af! (soms met de
78 ruimte van een hele maat erachter (bij unmatching staffs)
80 Hele rusten ook in andere maatsoort dan 4/4 (en centreren in de maat)
82 noten staan vaak te dicht aan de rechterkant van de maatstreep.
84 optie om nummers/markers boven maatstrepen te zetten
86 tekst staat erg ver van notenbalken af
88 waarom geen ; achter dingen in \paper? (\textwidth 180\mm)
89 (sowieso: wanneer wel en geen ; ?)
91 Onduidelijk wanneer wel en geen \ voor een woord. Maak liever
94 implementeren versieringen door duration *0 ofzo? (geeft nu assertion,
97 Triolen enzo: het zou handig zijn als je het cijfer "3" ook _tussen_
98 twee noten kon plaatsen. Dat is bijvoorbeeld nodig in
102 \bar "||" \meter 6/8; op het eind van de regel staat door elkaar
108 * staccato dot positions.
112 * redo timing stuff <-> pulk to allow \meter 2/4; e2. to work
117 * help-lines for rests
119 * lilypond - -> crash
121 * chlapik balk ruimte
123 * standchen triool beam up/down
131 FURTHER FOR ORCHESTRAL SCORE:
135 * barnumbers, markers
137 * abbreviations c4=16
139 * doublebar "||", finishbar "|||" (or "||." ?)
143 * relative mode for pitch entering
147 * configure pitch_byte
153 * rest name configurable
157 * subtime with Subtle_reqs
161 * --fast/--draft: leave out constraints
163 * write Dynamic_line (to group dynamics horizontally)
165 * write Rest_collision
167 * use Real for y positions.
169 * shared lib on Solaris too.
171 * bugreport to doc++ devel: struct not in class hier; public
174 * cleanup lily-proto.hh and proto.hh
176 * half-sharps, half-flats
180 * unix style paths for LILYINCLUDE env
182 * indentable stream as baseclass for TeX stream, lily stream, Dstream.
184 * caching Item/spanner dimensions.
188 * caching breakpoints / saving them.
190 * use dstream feature in mi2mu
192 * qtor, btor, mtor-> tor( QUIET_ver ), tor( DEBUG_ver ), etc.
194 * declare notenametab?
196 * use tors feature in lily
198 * do conventional keys (C G A, F B E, a e fis, d as des, etc ),
199 besides lists of flats/sharps
201 * update for T70 fonts or newer
203 * midi esp.: use I32 iso int where 32 bits are needed (or assumed...)
207 * read from mmap directly: bugreport to flex developers->
208 yy_scan_buffer in C++..
210 * binsearch/hash for identifiers
212 * stafftypes: voice names/ instrument names.
214 * Decent TeX titledefs (\tempo, \metron, etc. )
218 * textspanner: center position
224 * caching of Register_group_register hierarchies.
226 * use (char *) iso. String for communication between lexer and
229 * configure idealspacing: arithmetic spacing
232 * LilyPond .deb. Other packaging methods?
247 * auxilliary file for caching info.
249 * Reg_configure_request
251 * bring Collision::do_pre_processing to haircutter
253 * slur parts as a script
257 * put scripts on bars
261 * Junk Staff_column, and find the requests while walking the Voices.?
263 * better beamslope calculation: QLP for beams?
265 * implement better breaking algorithm
269 * clean solution for staffsize in items.
271 * merge key{item} & localkey{item}?
283 * scoping in Lexer: do general id- assignments in mudela.
287 * create libmudela, or liblily_frontend
289 * move MIDI stuff (including Quantization) to a ANSI C libmidi library.
291 * use an embedded language: Python
297 * y -dims in internote?
299 * hack up mf sources for decent spacing info (and then
300 read AFM/TFM directly, for text too)
302 * merge Atom and Symbol?
304 * merge common code of Item, Atom/Molecule
305 * Spacing_request for manually adjusting spacing
307 * Staff_group, Score_request_register.
309 * SHIT: meters/bars should be aligned, which is difficult if
310 we get different keychanges in different staffs.
312 * caching breakpoints
318 * used fixedpoint arithmetic for min. energy.
320 * default convert mudela-file.ly -> mudela-file.tex
321 - rename {standchen,scsii-menuetto,...}.tex
323 * (related with above) --simple-mudela option for lily,
324 to lily input files with one-voice simple mudela
327 * stack scripts in chords:
328 % fingering: footing:
329 < a-4 c-2 g-1 > < c-\ltoe e-\lheel >
331 * parameterised scripts for fingering and footing:
333 % toe to bheel four to five
339 (where "to" is a tiny bow)
341 * move towards incremental algorithms.
