For determining when to print an accidental, several different rules

@table @var

@item symbol
The symbol is the name of the context in which the following rules are to be
applied.  For example, if @var{context} is @rinternals{Score} then all
staves share accidentals, and if @var{context} is @rinternals{Staff} then
all voices in the same staff share accidentals, but staves do not.

@item procedure
The procedure represents an accidental rule to be applied to the previously
specified context.

The procedure takes the following arguments:

@table @code

@item context
The current context to which the rule should be applied.

@item pitch
The pitch of the note to be evaluated.

@item barnum
The current bar number.

@item measurepos
The current measure position.

natural should be added.  The second states whether an accidental should be
printed.  @code{(#t . #f)} does not make sense.

Enable bar numbers for all bars, including the first one and broken
bars (which get bar numbers in parentheses).

@item first-bar-number-invisible
Enable bar numbers for all bars (including broken bars) except the
first one.  If the first bar is broken, it doesn't get a bar number
either.

@item first-bar-number-invisible-save-broken-bars
Enable bar numbers for all bars (including broken bars) except the
first one.  A broken first bar gets a bar number.

@item first-bar-number-invisible-and-no-parenthesized-bar-numbers
Enable bar numbers for all bars except the first bar and broken bars.
This is the default.

@item (every-nth-bar-number-visible @var{n})
