Re: Bar lines

[Olivier Biot]

This thread is extremely interesting.

However, I think we're mixing two things here:

1. Defining semantically disjoint and intuitive bar line types (e.g., final measure ending bar line, start of repeat, end and start of repeat...)

2. Describing how a bar line type should be displayed

The former is not yet entirely addressed but would make a lot of sense to me. I would immediately embrace these if they were made available.

The latter is addressed with the "|." and other bar line input formats we currently define / allow. In my humble opinion they shouldn't be allowed except when defining a new bar line type.

Just my 2 cents.
