Hello all,

I am trying to generate some exercise files and I realized all I need is a
way to make chordmode render those chord names as arpeggios, instead of
vertical chords. Not in the classical notation, in otherwords, not the kind
showing the playing of notes simultaneously with the arpeggio symbol, but
returning the notes without them being grouped vertically and simultaneous.

Is there as simple way to get chord mode to return:

c4 e g

instead of

<c e g>4

I realize that this feature is called "chordmode" for a reason :) But this
ability to get back the arpeggios of a chord progression would be
exceedingly helpful for improvisational charts.

Then one could enter in

harmonies = d:min7 g7 c:maj7

and get back

d4 f a c
g b d f
c e g b

I am not brave enough to modify any built in .ly files that Lilypond depends
on..(yet).

Just checking to see if anyone else has already solved this one yet!

Thanks for any help.

Daniel
