Hi List,
I would like to propose that we rename the textual crescendo and
decrescendo commands to names that are more intuitive and are more
internally consistent. The current implementation uses the "hairpin"
commands to revert the "text" commands, but I do not think this
solution is very intuitive. Here is the list of the commands in
question:
\setTextCresc
\setTextDecresc
\setTextDecr
\setTextDim
\setHairpinCresc
\setHairpinDecresc
\setHairpinDim
Since hairpins are the default output -- using \< and \> -- shouldn't
the revert commands indicate that the "textual" (de)crescendo marks
are being turned off? Maybe we should keep the \set... commands that
set the alternative behavior (textual crescendos, etc.) and use
\unset... commands as their opposites. Or we could rename them using
the on/off method: \textCrescOn, \textCrescOff, etc.
Does anyone else think this is a good idea? I think it is worth
considering.
Thanks,
Patrick
