This is one of the few cases where you are lucky to stay
with a 1.2.x version, since the feature disappeared in
one of the major reimplementations done in 1.3.x.
Take a look at the example file input/test/repeatbar.sly,
I think you'll be able to understand how it works. I was lazy
with the documentation when I implemented this feature.

It's been on my TODO list for over a year now, together with a
reimplementation of this feature that fits better into the
current program structure. I have all the font symbols in some
file at home, though.
