Support alphabetic name generation for @n attributes > 26 #2

Closed th-we closed 8 years ago

The current way of getting from @n attributes to proper Lilypond names only works up to 26. Also, it repeats the same logic in a lot of places, which is avoided by this pull request.

In Ligeti's Atmosphères, the violins alone already have 28 staves. (I suppose the question was ironic.)

Well, XSLT 1.0 doesn't have functions, so this would IMO overcomplicate things. I saw you were planning to run this transformation in the browser. Can you explain why you would do that? As Lilypond does not run in the browser, a server would have to be involved anyway.

I finally made a branch for XSLT 1.0 (which will be paused for the moment) so we can focus on XSLT 2.0. @th-we Can you remove the conflict so I may merge your pull request?

This should be ready to merge now.
