hmmmm…
Thinking about it a little more, I realize that (a) there really isn’t a
backwards compatibility issue *unless* I change \time itself; and (2) as long
as \timeII outputs TimeSignatureMusic, “stylesheets” will still apply fine
across all TimeSignatures [regardless of what function creates them].
So: In your opinion, would adding a new function be superior overall to
“improving” the existing \time function?
Thanks,
Kieren.
