I had a look at the documentation for 1.8; it seems to be pretty much the same
as the doc for 2.11.

If it is the same, then it won't work:

\version "2.11.43"%%
\layout { \context { \Staff \consists "Horizontal_bracket_engraver"}}
\relative c'' 
{       
      c4\startGroup\stopGroup
}

That code produces: 
warning: do not have that many brackets
warning: conflicting note group events.

I can't start and stop an analysis bracket on the same note.


.

copy and paste I don't really care about; I'll be making up little macros to do
all of those commands for me.
