[frogs] Re: Numeric note heads for singers

["pounderd@xxxxxxxxxxx" <pounderd@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I might be misunderstanding the request, but couldn't it be done with

\override Voice . NoteHead #'note-names = #(vector "1" "2" "3" "4" "5" 
"6" "7") 
  \easyHeadsOn      .....

adjusting the numbers depending on the key

?
