I had originally though of a similar row (Actually, just change most of your
flats to sharps, and you've got the one I had though of).
Is this system of yours(?) used among people that use 16-tet at all, at
least on this list? (Since, if there's the slightest attempt at a standard,
I'd like to use that instead of going my own way).

For now, I only want to have this music notated on paper, in case my
computer system crashes totally, as a memory of my juvenile musical crimes.

I'll try out both of your suggestions, thanks.
