1 Features you cannot find in the doco as working, should be mentioned here.
3 This is an assorted collection of stuff that will be done, might be
4 done, or is an idea that I want to think about
6 Most of the items are marked in the code as well, with full explanation.
7 grep for TODO and ugh/ugr
9 * script for unified musicological source:
12 \begin{mudela} c4 d4 e4 f4
15 * lyrics with chords broken
17 * Redo MIDI output to use Translators
18 - remember more horizontal info than melodics:
26 * strict separation between visual and auditive processing.
28 * fix depcy/dept stuff in eg. Beam.
30 * whole head on ledger line
36 * implement better breaking algorithm
40 * decent TeX page layout
42 * enter script priority
49 - adapt for multiple font sizes.
50 - make separate class for Grace_*_engravers
51 (which is at Voice_gravs level)

55 * accidentals per Voice_group
57 * Convert all ref/bib stuff into BibTeX.
59 * Output class, handles : (smallish)
60 - help text /(c) notice?
62 - warning /errors/progress
63 - abort on error/warning; exit status
64 - quiet/ignore-version options

72 * Output an output format independent (ofi) typeset file; and
73 make ofi2 TeX, MusixTex, PostScript, Ascii... interpreters. (difficult)
74 - poor man's ascii output possible?
75 - MusixTeX output possible? (would have to be done before break calc.)

79 - Move PScore, Items, Spanners etc. into libmutype.a
81 * separate Score_elem settings in user-settable (properties
82 .. ) and non-user-settable part. Maybe use something like X-resources:
83 "Staff=oboe*dir: 0", "Staff=*.Voice_group=solo*dir: 1"
85 * TeX spanners , use texbeam.cc as an example (smallish)

94 - general shaving on Beam and Stem
96 - abbreviations [c2 c2]1/2
97 - separate visual from rhythmic info even more
102 - rename mf fonts to avoid conflicts with musixtex
103 - use own fonts/update musixtex fonts/find older (c)-less fonts
104 - hack up mf sources for decent spacing info (and then
105 read AFM/TFM directly, for text too)
106 - use MF to generate rules.
107 - rewrite : make a metafont iso font
110 - Ledger lines, should be separate item: Ledger_lines, Ledger_lines
111 - set different line sizes / thicknesses
112 - stem down too far right
113 - beam stem showthrough, inter beam sizes (french vs german style)
116 - bring Collision::do_pre_processing to haircutter
117 - left/right note balls should be handled by Collision:
118 < \multi 2; { \stem 1; <b c> } { <f as b> } >
121 - merge key{item} & localkey{item}?
122 - do conventional keys (C G A, F B E, a e fis, d as des, etc ),
123 besides lists of flats/sharps, possibly via declaration
125 - key undo: \key bes; .. . \key; should print natural
126 - special key: \key 'b bes bis';
127 - spacing, national styles?
130 * Duration -> Musical_duration, typedef Rational Duration?
134 * fix mysterious Flex malloc bug
136 * should adjust stemlength for flag number.
138 * lilypond - -> crash
140 * standchen triool beam up/down
142 * (where are the) gcc compile warnings on linux
150 * barnumbers, markers
152 * abbreviations c4=16
156 * c4 4 4 4 for c4 c4 c4 c4?
158 * neatly (and readably) expressing concurrent

175 * relative mode for pitch entering
177 * bracket (bracketplets)
181 * configure pitch_byte
185 * rest name configurable
189 * subtime with Subtle_reqs
193 * Do RTTI i.s.o. static_name(), name() and request-junk.
197 * A range for context errors (eg. mark both { and }. )
199 * lyric in staff (sharpsharp in staff, text below)
201 * fix Egler definitions ( see tex/eglerdefs.tex )
203 * replace Score_elem member access by get()/set() methods, to enable
204 future embedded code.
206 * --fast/--draft: leave out constraints
208 * write Dynamic_line (to group dynamics horizontally)
210 * write Rest_collision
212 * use Real for y positions.
214 * shared lib on Solaris too.

239 * use dstream feature in mi2mu
241 * qtor, btor, mtor-> tor( QUIET_ver ), tor( DEBUG_ver ), etc.
242 - use tors feature in lily (?)
246 * declare notenametab?
248 * midi esp.: use I32 iso int where 32 bits are needed (or assumed...)
