* GNU LilyPond TODO
Features you cannot find in the documentation 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 we want to think about.

Most of the items are marked in the code as well

-> 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.
