)Hello list,
)
)together with Janek Warchol I ran into trouble transposing harmonically
)complex music.
)In order to transpose a piece from e flat to c sharp minor we had to first
)transpose a middle section enharmonically (\transpose e fes) because it
)would otherwise end up having an untolerable amount of double sharps.
)This gave us a few erroneous results that we had difficulties to track
)down.
)
)Now I found the reason, and it is that \transpose won't produce triple
)accidentals.
)I think this isn't a bug, as triple accidentals don't exist in Lilypond.
)But unfortunately the warnings issued by lilypond don't refer to line
)numbers and are therefore difficult to interpret and didn't lead us to the
)source of the error.
)
)Therefore I'd suggest the following addition to the docs:
