Re: [bug] 2.5.2 breaks ancient notation

[Juergen Reuter]

What's the syntax of the s/u/d?  Should it always be the first character 
in the glyph name?  In feta-bolletjes.mf, I see:

fet_beginchar("Whole Crossed notehead", "s0cross", "wholecrossedhead")

(i.e. "s" as first character before duration),

but also:

fet_beginchar("Half Crossed notehead", "1scross", "halfcrossedhead")

(i.e. after the duration).



Similarly, in parmesan-heads.mf, after your change, I currently see:

fet_beginchar("Mensural maxima notehead", "-s3mensural", "mensuralmaximahead");

(i.e. "s" after "-"),

but also:

fet_beginchar("Mensural longa notehead", "s-2mensural", "mensurallongahead");

(i.e. "s" before "-").



So, what's the intended syntax?

Greetings,
Jürgen
