Re: Tremolo positioning

[Joshua Parmenter]

This is great to know.

While I am still learning syntax, etc. of lilypond, perhaps the first  
thing I can volunteer to do in the near future is program some of the  
more common (or attainable) house style sheets. Like I said, I  
believe I have the Durand sheet somewhere. If anyone else out there  
has some current ones laying around, please contact me off list, and  
I'll use this as one of my first goals.

Thanks everyone, and apologies again for jumping in mid thread.

Also, my scanner doesn't seem to like my new MacBook at the  
moment.... I'll scan a few things in the near future and post them if  
there is still interest.

Best,

Josh
