Sorry for replying to my own post. I forget sometimes that not everyone
necessarily reads the code or cares about looking in the code tree in git
Assuming you can understand these files I am referring to then it should
be obvious, but just in case (and so I apologize if I am patronizing
you) you should be able to use
\clef "tenorvarC"
James
I must confess that I've not been using 2.19. My comments were based on my
encounter with the "changes" page. If \clef "tenorvarC" puts that 'varC' clef
in the tenor position then my question is answered.
Thanks!
