I know very little about LilyPond, but I did see there are quite a few fonts developed already:

I remember I have tried once to edit brace, but I got it very messy. It is not easy!

Re: Braces

Ok, after messing around with it for the first time in a long while, I now definitely hate Finale's brace designer. I wonder what percentage of Finale users have every actually used it? Anyway, any opinions on #14? I've done so many variants on it my eyes are tired of looking at it. In other edits I...
