Adam Good has made a new file for AEU.

For the glyphs, one can use SMuFL together with the OpenLilyLib. In addition, 
one should choose a tuning system, which in LilyPond is also used for the MIDI.

For AUE, it is Pythagorean tuning and commas, which can be used with E53, or 
E72. LilyPond can only handle ETs.

What tuning system is the folk music notation based on?
