There are two ways to implement the drawing functions
of microtone accidentals:
- old method
- When there is no "%%microscale" nor "%%micronewps", the name of
the PostScript function which draws a microtone accidental is:
<accidental_type><micro_value>
where:
- <accidental_type> is "sh" (sharp) or "ft" (flat)
(may be also "nt", "dsh" or "dft" !)
- <micro_value> is computed from the fraction as:
(<numerator> - 1) * 256 + <denominator> - 1
and it is called with <x> and <y>.
- new method
- When either "%%microscale" or "%%micronewps" is defined,
the name of the PostScript function is:
<accidental_type><fraction_of_tone>
and it is called with <x> <y> <numerator>.
Note that the <fraction of tone> is two times the pitch
denominator when there is no "%%microscale" definition.
