I have some questions regarding slides.
I think tablature users need different kinds of slides:
* legato slide: just the first note is picked (by fingers or
flatpick), the notes after the first one are not picked again.
In this case, besides the line which ties the numbers together, there
should be an arch (a slur) showing that is a legato slide [this is
what I've always seen in most books and tab editors].
It's probably the most used kind of slide..
And, afaik, there's not a command in LilyPond to achieve that. Please
tell me if I'm wrong.
* slide: not only the first note, but also the notes after are picked.
In this case, a line is sufficient.
This feature is already supported and it's enabled by \glissando
* slide up/ slide down: that is, when you slide from and indefinite
point to a precise note, so basically the first number is missing. It
can't be legato (because there's just one note).
I don't know if I can already get this with \glissando. I never
managed to get it working.
If I write \glissando "the note to slide to", it will connect the note
before with this note.
Do you know any workaround?
Any comments and suggestions are appreciated.
