Re: TrillSpanner problem in 2.10

[Mats Bengtsson]

Are you sure that the example worked in version 2.8?
I tried to process the code you sent with 2.8 and got an error message saying

ERROR: Unbound variable: trillflat

so I guess that it's only the error message that has changed.
Another option is that you had a line with something like

trillflat = \markup{\flat}

in your original file and that it has disappeared for some
reason. If you add such a definition, then your Scheme
code works like a charm.
