Markups as variables.

[Ralph Little]

Hi,
<humility> Sorry if this is obvious to everyone else, but </humility> I
can't find anything in the Lilypond manual to indicate that you can assign
markups to variables and use those variables to attach markups to notes.

e.g.

allegro = \markup { \bold \large { Allegro }}
\notes { a^\allegro b c d}

This is a well funky idea, but it wasn't obvious to me that it would work,
until I had this mad idea and gave it a try.

I think it would be a useful thing to add to the manual.

Regards,
Ralph
