I am confused here.  Are you trying to implement the symbols that are
on the tab staff, or on the normal notation?

Both. But first, I want to concentrate on the pointed slurs in the normal
notation,
make that the default for normal staves *and* tablature and then (as

I wouldnt bother with the slurs at all, not in the last part because
your bends will likely break if someone ever decides to refactor the
slur code.
Ok.
Just write a simple grob that is composed of two line segments to make
the pointed bend.  Have you already thought of how the spanner should
behave when it crosses a line break?
@ David: Can you give us a small example of how a bend across a line
break would look like?

(I know that strings can break after excessive bends, but that's another issue :-)
I will try to get something out within the next 48 hours.



You'll probably need entirely different code for the tab version,
including different grob code, and a different engraver.  I recommend
worrying about that once the pointed-brace version is completely
working.
Yes, I didn't plan to do all at once, but I wanted to show where the road will
eventually lead to.

Thanks for your hints!
