5 Features you cannot find in the documentation as working, should be
6 mentioned here. This is an assorted collection of stuff that will be
7 done, might be done, or is an idea that we want to think about.
8 Most of the items are marked in the code as well
9 Grep -i for TODO, FIXME and ugh/ugr/urg.
12 . * use hash tabs iso. alist_ for elt property?
13 . * unhardcode stuff in bezier-bow: all sizes other than 20pt are
15 . * control paper-size/-file from commandline ?
16 lilypond --paper=paper16 foo.ly
17 lilypond --paper=paper20 foo.ly
18 lilypond --paper=paper-as9 foo.ly
19 . * entangle ly/* paper-params papersize stuff
21 . * change ) c4 to c4-)
23 . * There should be no pagebreak below the title of the movement!!
26 > - Tempo Indications:
27 > * \tempo 4 = 60 should be printed
28 > * There should be commands like \alloegro that also do something
31 . * - It should be possible to have Bar numbers on every bar.
34 > * Notes should be spaced out for crescendos (had to use c^" ")
35 > * something like c-.->\ff looks ugly. The dynamc indication should
36 > appear left of the marks
39 There's insufficient leading between lines of lyrics, so risers like
40 `l' and 'b' collide with the bottom of the line above.
42 Also the lines are unevenly spaced.
44 . * write comments in the source code
45 . * internationalize GUILE msgs.
47 1> The volta brackets are on top of the lyrics. This problem existed in
48 1.2.x which I corrected by giving the brackets a vertical size. I
49 have not had the time to check what is going on in 1.3.
51 2> Part names are being written on top of the staff and not in the
54 3> The tag at the end is spaced out clear across the page. (new problem
57 I also get the following error messages from ly2dvi.
60 -- Take a piece of early music, and typeset it as closely as possible to
61 the original edition. This means: moveable clefs, sometimes funny or no
62 time signatures, few or no bar lines, few or no ties, slurs or
63 phrasemarks, ornaments implied by the structure of the music, or
64 indicated by, e.g., one or more thick lines through the stem of a note
65 (Purcell and Farnaby both use this extensively, but with rather
66 different meanings). For Dowland's music it may also mean being able
67 to rotate one or more staves (but I can do this in LaTeX).
69 -- Add to this music a set of critical marks that:
70 * regularises clef, time and key signature.
71 * add slurs, phrase marks, articulation, etc.
72 * Halve or quarter the durations, so that minims become crotchets, say.
73 * add ornaments (mordents, trills, turns etc)
74 * add regular barlines (which sometimes will mean splitting a note
75 and adding a tie, e.g., in some of Byrd's music)
76 * Add footnotes to particular symbols, groups of notes, etc.
77 * When translating from chant notation, add a square bracket over a
78 group of notes to indicate a ligature in the original
80 * Discretionary sharp or flat signs, for Musica Ficta
82 -- print out both editions from the same source.
83 . * write smobifying howto.
84 . * put property test files in refman.
85 . * alignment within @itemize

88 . * Change website to be index to documentation.

97 . * make a TODO.texi, like http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/ideas.html
98 . * make this file understandable for 3rd parties.

100 . * context in embedded SCM errors.
101 . * acc at tied note after linebreak.
102 . * fontSize for time sigs and beams.
103 . * fix font-naming and selecting
104 . * add context information to warnings

111 . * chord tonic: placement of accidental C#, Cb (from scm and C++)
112 . * note head on stem err msg in dutch.
113 . * why need to run -C mf twice?
114 . * here's no difference at all in output. When either is jacked up to 7.0,
115 everything works and matches up; when either is set just a bit above the
116 default 5.0 (5.4 is what I was hoping to use), stems miss note heads. So
117 it's some sort of a numerical (truncation/roundoff) problem.
119 . * fix #'margin-shape; setting indent to 0 with \shape fails
120 . * Fixed size staff/system heights;
121 . * ly2dvi : don't repeat opus if same.
122 . * hara kiri _8 clef.
126 . * Added StaffContents and RhythmicStaffContents context, they are
127 between Staff (which groups the elements), and generates the Staff
128 level elements (key, clef, meter, etc). This construction makes
129 \consistsend redundant
132 - if I change the property minVerticalAlign in a multi staff score with
133 lyrics the change affects the lyrics too. I would like the change to
134 _only_ affect staves.
135 - after the leading measure in the above mentioned score I want a double
136 bar line fully drawn across the staves and after that keep to the
137 ChoirStaff bar line types in the rest of the scores
138 . * Write script that uses --find-old-relative to do auto relativization.
142 . * \$ and $ identifier syntax in examples.
143 . * Key_engraver, Local_key_item
144 . * Think of comprehensive solution for "if (grace_b == self_grace_b_)"
145 . * String[String.length] doesn't trap.
146 . * Rhythmic_column and interaction stem/rhythmic_column/note_head/dots.
149 . * Lookup::text -> needs to be TeX independent.
150 . * junk Music_iterator::first_b_
153 . * half-sharps, half-flats
154 . * adaptive accidental spacing.
155 . * accidentals closer to note head
159 . * [c8. c16 c16 c16] in 6/8 timesig.
160 . * Rewrite Stem, Beam (hairy)
161 . * beams over barlines
162 . * autoBeamMelisma: if I explicitly beam notes in a staff with auto
163 beaming disabled I would like to have these beams also to be
165 . * The stemLength property should affect also beamed stems.
166 . * staffside spanner (crescendo!) along with staffswitch.
167 . * * auto melismaBusy for beams.
173 . * \time forces keysig?
176 . * We need feta-din*.mf files for more sizes than 10.
177 . * align left edge of broken tuplet-spanner (have a test case?)
178 . * fix dynamics decently, ie. use kerning & ligatures.
179 . * key restorations & repeats
180 . * paperXX.ly \quartwidth, font setting not up to date. (Should read from AFM?)
181 . *In Caro Mio Ben, bar 8, there's a syllable that starts on a note, and
182 ends on a pair of grace notes. Standard practice is to mark this with
183 a slur starting on the main note and ending on the grace note, so a
184 singer knows where to break the words.
186 In bar 27, there's a crescendo that's supposed to start at the start
187 of the grace notes and extend to the note after the grace notes.
188 . * 4. Lyrics and grace sections don't go too well together.
189 The words are aligned with the main note, not the start of the
190 grace note. This is usually wrong, but is sometimes right.
191 . * rhythmic staff & accidentals.
192 . * use melismaBusy in Lyric context to typeset melismata correctly.
193 . * ly2dvi/lilypond logfile.
194 . * hang Item on Spanner
195 . * do --safe for PS output?
197 . * collision of lyrics with span_bars. See star-spangled.
198 . * It is impossible to typeset two textual scripts that are stacked
199 on top of each other and avoids note collisions and at the same
200 time are typeset with different textStyle. I tried to move around
201 the text_engraver and other engravers between Voice and Thread
202 but the granularity is not fine enough, the scripts have to
203 share the same engraver in order to be get correct vertical
204 position but than they cannot have different style.
205 In my opinion, all scripts that share the same staff, should
206 be stacked vertically, avoiding collisions with the notes
210 . * don't shorten stems/staffs closer to each other.
211 . * to space the staffs/staffgroups contained in the score.
213 . * Abstraction for engravers:
214 . * make "in-between" engraver (Tie)
215 . * make wide_spanner_engraver (line_group_spanner, staff_symbol)
216 . * store req -> element, element -> element causes for warnings
217 . * My wish list for lyrics. I dream of a time when I will have enough time to
218 become familiar enough with the source code to be able to implement some of
219 these myself, but I don't know when that will be, so I thought I'd "publish"
220 my suggestions in case someone else is in a position to give them some
221 priority. Otherwise, perhaps they could go on the todo list?
223 If any of these are already implemented, please let me what the syntax is to
226 1. Stanza numbering. Numbering at the beginning of a song with the number
227 set to the left of the first note. It would also be nice (but not as
228 important) to be able to have some form of automatic numbering at the
229 beginning of each new line. This would make it easier to follow songs with a
230 large number of stanzas.
232 3. Notes centred above/below lyrics rather than left-aligned.
234 4. It would be very nice to be able to build some kind of phrasing into the
235 lyrics of hymns, etc, so that the first words of a phrase are left aligned
236 with each other, the last words are right aligned, and the words in between
239 5. In a song, with (say) four stanzas and a chorus, it would be nice to be
240 able to vertically align the chorus midway between the staves.
242 6. It would be nice to be able to put vertical brackets either side of a
243 repeated section with different words for each repeat.
244 . * Give # lines in linebreaking.
246 . * rewrite context defs using Scheme
247 . * junk TeX specifics from internal code.
248 . * \selectmusic to cut pieces from music.
249 . * formatting of input stuff.
251 . * Align_element::padding ?
252 . * use streambufs and iostream
253 to provide IO handling for TeX stream, mudela stream, data-file.
254 . * seriously buffer TeX output (do profile of writing .5 mb TeX file.)
255 . * uniformise recent feta contributions.
256 . * bigger and fatter 4/4 C
257 . * relative mode for midi2ly
258 . * junking \skip req in lyrics
259 . * midi2ly empty staffs.
260 . * use Fourier transformation for rhythmic quantisation.
261 . * horizontal centering of dynamics
262 . * $DEPENDENCIES_OUTPUT support
263 . * turn slope-damping on/off
264 . * sort out directory stuff.
266 . * -I option per filetype?
268 . * declaring Performers
269 . * text-items clash with stems/beams
270 . * --include, -I option for ly2dvi (pass on to lily)
271 . * fix placement of beam-less abbrev
272 . * Musical_pitch (analogous to Duration and Rhythmic_req)
273 think about, analogous to pitch:
274 * { a4 a16 } c <-- duration of c?
275 * < a4 b8 > c <-- duration of c?
277 . * do rest-collisions for Multi_measure_rests as well.
278 . * split error/warning in error/warning/non_fatal_error
279 . * discourage breaking of slurs
280 . * fix variable define/lookup parser global<->paper
281 . * fix title/instrument placements; see input/test/title.ly
282 . * <\voiceone c4. \voicetwo c4>
283 . * I'd like to change the \repetitions command to Jan's suggested
284 syntax: \repeat "repeatsymbol" 2 {...}, but I'm not sure that
285 I understand the implementation of repeats well enough.
286 . * add mudela-book-doc source to webstie.
287 . * fix singleStaffBracket
288 . * move paper vars into engraver properties
289 . * add new glyphs to font.ly
290 . * more intelligent file searching
291 . * disable spaces in TeX stuff
292 . * handle ^C for tmp/file creation.
293 . * make LilyPond RPM fully relocatable
294 . * didot / big point.
295 . * clefs (AG): The "8" should appear closer to the actual clef,
297 . * put errorlevel in Input class
298 . * junk nesting slurs
302 . * the bracket is ugly (wings are too parabolic, should be more circular)
303 . * fix accordion turning paths.
304 . * versioning for Feta
305 . * rewrite dynamic signs. They're kind of spaghetti now.
306 . * The `3' in the meter key is a one or two pixels too thin (at 600dpi)
308 . * design macro for penstroke with rounded endings
309 . * timesig C: fat yet less curved. Check out relations.
310 . * design decent macro for bulbed endings
311 . * printer dependencies.
314 . * work out sizes of character fonts.
316 . * piano pedals: Ped/*
317 . * coda signs: Segno, O+
318 . * glissando, arpeggio
320 . * include important spacing dims in fetalog
321 . * scalability: use blot_diameter everywhere, make font chubbier for
325 . * UMR: Uninitialized memory read

335 . * patch: don't touch timestamp if all patches fail.
336 . * MetaPost: should not generate setgray for unfill
338 f = fopen ("/dev/null", "r")
343 . * stack scripts in chords:
344 % fingering: footing:
345 < a-4 c-2 g-1 > < c-\ltoe e-\lheel >

348 . * stack parameterised scripts for fingering and footing:
353 . * convert-mudela -e empty.ly
355 . * emacs mudela-mode
356 . * should handle block comments too.
357 . * handle lexer modes (\header, \melodic, \lyric) etc.
360 . * fontlock: \melodic \melodic
362 . * use properties for:
367 . * optimal pagebreaking.
369 . * internationalisation for input.
370 . * Unicode support? -> man 7 unicode
