1 Features you cannot find in the doco as working, should be mentioned here.
3 This is an assorted collection of stuff that will be done, might be
4 done, or is an idea that I want to think about
6 Most of the items are marked in the code as well, with full explanation.

167 < \multi 2; { \stem 1; <b c> } { <f as b> } >
170 - merge key{item} & localkey{item}?
171 - do conventional keys (C G A, F B E, a e fis, d as des, etc ),

179 - redo Notehead to allow digits as heads
180 - add a \tablature {} lexer mode for easy entering
182 * should adjust stemlength for flag number.
