Re: which installation files contain code for notehead styles?

[jerome talkington]

Ah, I see...thanks! 

Jean, to answer, reason being that I'm looking for an easy way to modify the #'slash notehead style so it can include augmentation dots. (rather than trying to create a new style from scratch, as that #'slash style has everything I need otherwise.) 

Much appreciated,

LT

Yes, that's correct (it's just C++ code, not C). Though, what do you
need this information for? In case you're just looking for the full list
of note head styles, it's here:
