Easy Notation note heads

A entirely different type of note head is the "easyplay" note head: a note head that includes a note name. It is used in some publications by Hal-Leonard Inc. music publishers.

     \score {
       \notes { c'2 e'4 f' | g'1 }
       \paper { \translator { \EasyNotation } }
     }
     

Note that EasyNotation overrides a Score context. You probably will want to print it with magnification or a large font size to make it more readable. To print with magnification, you must create a dvi (with ly2dvi) and then enlarge it with something like dvips -x 2000 file.dvi. See man dvips for details. To print with a larger font, see Font Size.

If you view the result with Xdvi, then staff lines will show through the letters. Printing the PostScript file obtained with ly2dvi does produce the correct result.
