Hi there

I'm quite new to cmn. I'm trying to write out some
chord notes to help me practising, and would like to
display them as whole notes in a bar, eg for C major :
C D E F G A B C, with the chord notes (C E G B) filled
in. Very basic.

However, the notes are not evenly spaced in the bar. I
have the following :

(cmn 	(output-file "./jacques/mwa_solo.eps") (size 20)
	(staff treble (meter 4 4) 	
		bar (unmetered)	(d4 q no-stem) 
				(e4 h no-stem) 
				(fs4 q no-stem) 
				(g4 h no-stem) 
				(a4 q no-stem) 
				(b4 h no-stem) 
				(cs5 q no-stem)
				(d5 h no-stem)
   		bar (unmetered) repeat-measure
		bar (unmetered) (cs4 q no-stem)
				(d4 h no-stem) 
				(e4 h no-stem) 
				(f4 q no-stem) 
				(g4 h no-stem) 
				(a4 q no-stem) 
				(b4 q no-stem)
				(cs5 h no-stem)
		bar (unmetered) (cs4 q no-stem)
				(d4 h no-stem) 
				(e4 h no-stem) 
				(f4 q no-stem) 
				(g4 h no-stem) 
				(a4 q no-stem) 
				(b4 q no-stem)
				(cs5 h no-stem)	
	)
)

In the last 2 bars, the first note (C sharp) is quite
a distance away from the rest... how can I make it
look like the first bar ?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks.
Jacques
