* GNU LilyPond TODO
Features you cannot find in the doco as working, should be
mentioned here.  This is an assorted collection of stuff that will be
done, might be done, or is an idea that I want to think about

Most of the items are marked in the code as well
Grep for TODO and ugh/ugr/urg.

.  * P.P.S. It can be cool in mudela-book to distinguish in
pre,postMudelaExample, whether MudelaExample is epsed or not: ( if
this fragment is floating eps, than 1, otherwise 2). say
preMudelaExample[eps]{}, and change it in document body sometimes.
.  * use less RE's
. * junk _ in lyric mode for " "
. * Lyrics and scripts collide.
. * a note with a circle after it, meaning:

   note + circle = note + 1/4 of its length

   the circle is like a dot that's not filled in.  for example, on
   page three, the c-sharp on the second line should be a quarter with 
   a circle, not a quarter tied to a sixteenth.  is this at all
   possible with lily?

My wish list for lyrics. I dream of a time when I will have enough time to
become familiar enough with the source code to be able to implement some of
these myself, but I don't know when that will be, so I thought I'd "publish"
my suggestions in case someone else is in a position to give them some
priority. Otherwise, perhaps they could go on the todo list?

If any of these are already implemented, please let me what the syntax is to
use them!

1. Stanza numbering. Numbering at the beginning of a song with the number
set to the left of the first note. It would also be nice (but not as
important) to be able to have some form of automatic numbering at the
beginning of each new line. This would make it easier to follow songs with a
large number of stanzas.

2. Hyphens between syllables. At the moment there appears to be no easy way
to position a hyphen mid-way between the syllables it breaks.

3. Notes centred above/below lyrics rather than left-aligned.

4. It would be very nice to be able to build some kind of phrasing into the
lyrics of hymns, etc, so that the first words of a phrase are left aligned
with each other, the last words are right aligned, and the words in between
are centred.

5. In a song, with (say) four stanzas and a chorus, it would be nice to be
able to vertically align the chorus midway between the staves.

6. It would be nice to be able to put vertical brackets either side of a
repeated section with different words for each repeat.

> Would it be hard to add support for proper dynamics in MIDI output?  I
> would really like to have this feature...

Concretely spoken, for dynamics you have to write a performer
(Dynamics_performer), that will take the input requests. If I
understand correctly, every MIDI note played must have its dynamic
strength set separately.  That means the the Dynamics_performer must
set the strength of every Audio_note it finds.  This means that one
has to modify existing Audio items.  The best way of doing this is
with a broadcast/acknowledge process.

So the best way of handling this, is

  1 supporting dynamic settings in Audio_note

  2 Write a Dynamics_performer that will modify
  any notes it finds to set appropriate strengths.

I'd say that the work involved is not hard, but you have to be fluent
with C++ and need some insight into the working of Notation Contexts
and friends.  I guess I could do it in a day or so, but if you are not
so fluent with the inner workings of LilyPond, it could take you some
more time (A few more days?).

Please note, that I am *not* going to code this myself: my days are
valuable, and I think I have more interesting things to do than fixing
the MIDI output (I don't even have a soundcard).  But I *do* want to help
you or other people with implementing this, so if you need help, don't
hesitate to ask.
