Hey list/maintainers
I have a couple of sugestions for your jazz chords, I'm using them to typeset a
couple of tunes i play w/ some guys, in stead of reading from a realbook, and i
noticed some things.
1) When i use the chord c:9- I think it's going to give me C7(b9) but in stead it
gives me C7maj7b9. same with c:9+
2) When i use c:maj it gives me a triangle, this is not commonly used and i think a
lot of modern jazz players would prefer Cmaj7 in stead of C(triangle). this is that
same for a C minor major 7 chord c:m.7+
3) The half diminished 7 chord c:m5-.7 is portrayed as a slashed circle, although
again, i think most jazz players ould prefer seeing Cm7b5
4) c:3-.6.9^7 is printed as Cm6 6135maj79 while m6/9 does the same thing.
5) With all the b13 chords the b comes after the 13
6) c:9.3-.5 prints c (half diminsished) 7 6135maj79 while Cm7b5add9 would do the
same thing i'd say.
If i'm asuming wrong please let me know.
i don't know myself how to change it in the source since i abtained lilypond through
apt-get (v 1.4.12). But if this could be considered for 1.5 or 1.6 (If it's not
already) that would be highly apreciated.
