I'm transcribing Regina Coeli (tonus sollemnis) from Praglia's Antiphonale Monasticum. In the last Alleluia of this antiphon, there's the following scandicus/salicus:

How could I write it in GABC? Is it currently supported? I read through GregorioTeX documentation ans I was unable to find this kind of neum, unless the middle note is an oriscus.

Thank you very much, Mathias!

But it's not exactly what I need. It lacks a stem between first and second note. Moreover, the third note should not be liquescent.

I had a doubt on the presence of a liquescence on the third note from your screenshot.

In the absence of liquescence f@h@j will work. I don't know if it's the most proper way since it is preferable to make use of already existing multi-note neumes rather than merging single notes together explicitly; but it works.
