The up and down arrows are eighth tones, but there is no standard convention
for how to write them. Also, as you can imagine, they are approximations of
just-intoned intervals. What really matters is the fingering chart. To
effectuate these eighth tones, I modified someone else's quarter tone code
(see below).
As I'll be using a lot of microtones, I may work on automating your very
good solution. My deadline for the piece is July 20, so I am under the gun,
but as Confucius once said, "One day devoted to automating a process saves
you a lifetime of doing it manually."
