Easy Notation note heads

The `easy play' note head includes a note name inside the head. It is used in music aimed at beginners:

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

The EasyNotation variable 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 file (with lilypond) and then enlarge it with something like dvips -x 2000 file.dvi. See the dvips documentation for more 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 does produce the correct result.
