Long accent in FE

We put a long accent into our main text, following FE. In the remaining sources this mark may be interpreted either as a long accent or as a hairpin mark  . In practice, the difference is negligible, as in Chopin's notation  marks that are not preceded by   have the meaning of a long accent and diminuendo.
