==== Septimal commas ====

The septimal comma glyph indicates a change by ~~ca. 30 cents, this is larger than~~ [[64/63]]

The septimal comma glyph traditionally indicates a change by [[64/63]], and thus, in this particular system, it binds itself to the equivalent step size, which is around 30 cents- slightly larger than normal.

==== Darts ====

The dart glyph indicates a change by ca. 1 159edo step (~~ca.~~ 7.5 cents), the dart has no traditional binding to a specific [[comma]].

The dart glyph indicates a change by ca. 1 159edo step (around 7.5 cents), the dart has no traditional binding to a specific [[comma]], and in fact, can be used for other EDOs in a similar capacity

== Combined accidentals ==

The following table (under construction) shows the symbols and describes their function. The terms in the glyph name sections reflect absolute displacements, <code>-</code> means down, <code>+</code> means up. Furthermore, symbols with multiple names will have both names sharing the same cell. The choice between the primary and secondary glyphs for any given step is often determined both by absolute TE error and by harmonic and melodic context for any given score, particularly as the primary and secondary glyphs reflect different intervals in Just Intonation.
