Re: [Denemo-devel] New Education script::Counting half steps

[Richard Shann]

I can't answer this properly just now, but if you replace the
CountHalfSteps::placenote definition with this

 (define (CountHalfSteps::placenote notename)
   (d-MoveToEnd) 
   (d-C)
   (d-PutNoteName notename))

then you don't need to worry about the prevailing accidentals. You will
want to set the prevailing duration too (perhaps only once?).

It also needs something to prevent the notes being heard, at least the
dummy C in this version, there is some command for that...
