Just checking - you can't make circular staves with notes in lilypond, can you? I know you can do nice circle of fifths diagrams as per an LSR example, but circular staves are way out of scope, aren't they?
This came up in the Dorico forum and several users assert with no evidence or examples that lilypond can, so I wanted to check my view.
What exactly makes you think it is not possible, given the control LilyPond gives you on the notation via Scheme?
Attached is an include file showing that you can do basic circular scores in <100 lines of straightforward Scheme code. This is a quickly coded demo, it would need a bit of love to gracefully print beams or ledger lines. (I won't invest that effort if the person is staying on Dorico and not actually using it, though.)
