-Breathing signs, also used for phrasing, do normally not influence
-global spacing -- only if space gets tight, notes are shifted to make
-room for the breathing sign. Breathing signs break beams running
-through their voice. In the following example, the notes in the first
-two measures all have the same distance from each other.
-
Breathing signs are available in different tastes: commas (default),
-ticks, vees and `railroad tracks' (caesura).
-
-Gregorian chant notation sometimes also uses commas and ticks, but in
-smaller font size (we call it 'virgula' and 'caesura'). However, the
-most common breathing signs are divisio minima/maior/maxima and
-finalis, the latter three looking similar to bar glyphs.
