virtual fonts in CVS

I added support for virtual fonts in CVS. Ancient notation should now
work as before the feta/parmesan split. I'd like to request that all
glue code to sets font-family depending on style properties be
removed again.

Thanks!

Ok, will be done during this week.

No, I only reported exactly about the same error. The paper output was
fine, which is the most important. In order to proofcheck the rest of the
piece the graces had to be commented out, which is a pity if you have
groups of graces in several places. Currently, if groups of graces are
used throughout the piece then midi becomes almost unusable.

IMHO, it would be the most convenient if one could show exactly how much
earlier graces should play. For example,

   e2 | \grace{ f8 } e2
   e2 | \grace{ f16 g16 } e2

would start play exactly '8'-duration earlier in midi, but

   e2 | \grace{ f8 }*1/2 e2        % a proposed syntax
   e2 | \grace{ f16 g16 }*1/2 e2   % a proposed syntax

Update: this definately won't work, because of the way Lily builds the
web site -- there's a standard html header file (it mostly sets up the
menus on the left) that's included in all the seperate html pages.  That
header also defines the title.

There might be another way to do it, of course -- I'm certainly not an
expert at these things.  I'd imagine that there's a way to make texinfo
automatically use the " <at> section foo" string for the html <title></title>.

Umm, I should have cc'd this to lilypond-devel a few emails ago.  In case
some people there don't read lilypond-user as well, here's the original
suggestion that we're discussing:

That's not true. <title> comes from the  <at> title in lilypond.tely (for
the manual). If you want to put node names in the webpages, you have
to hack a little at makeinfo (included in the GNU Texinfo
package. Maybe you can even ask the maintainer who is also a LilyPond
user.)

Hi!

This patch removes the obsolete font-family stuff, as requested by
Han-Wen and also updates some input/test files.  The diff is against
current cvs.

half noteheads

after the stem-thickness has increased from 0.8 to 1.3 then you can see 
the stem ending within the white part of the half notehead - looking ugly.
The notehead should be thickened so that its thickness on the left and 
right edge is also 1.3
