Re: show key signature but also alterations

[Ignacio Lois]

Maybe the simplest way to achieve this is the good old "!"

\language "english"
{
  \key d \major
  d' e' fs'! g' a' b' cs''! d''
}

You could try the attached, which is the 2.20.0 source code for the
teaching accidental style (+some helper functions) with one change to
accommodate 2.18 syntax, i.e. the key signature is obtained from the
localKeySignature context property instead of localAlterations. Thus the
code does not work with Lilypond 2.20.0. Also note the override is no
longer necessary.
