Marc,
I'm impressed!
Thanks :-)
It your feature gets accepted (and I'm sure it will!) and if you don't
mind I will prepare a patch for the NR.
That's great!
There's one obvious detail that has to be mentioned in the docs: When
you transpose your music and/or change the string tuning you might
have to adjust your custom fret numbers "manually".
Um, I don't think so. Lilypond does not take care of the underlying
string tuning,
so Iif you say
\harmonicByFret #7 c4
you'll get the corresponding pitch of a string tuned to c, whether this
is a real open string or not.
So, if you use drop d for example, you'll have to write
\harmonicByFret #7 d,4\6
Transposing is not so much a problem, because in general, you can't
transpose harmonics easily.
If you write a marvelous tune with tons of harmonics in it and want it
to sound one semitone
higher, either use a capo or forget about the harmonics.
What's more important IMHO (and I forgot to mention in my last mail) is
the fact that it is in general
safer to indicate the string manually, otherwise
\harmonicByFret #2.3 e,4
would be placed at the E1-string, so
\harmonicByFret #2.3 e,4\6
does the trick.
Greetings,
Marc
