that's truly great, jon, thank you!! i'd never have found that myself,
i'm afraid... :-(

i increased the fontsize a bit and adjusted the offsets accordingly and
i got exactly what i was looking for. here's my slightly modified code:


\version "2.11.51"

\relative c'' {
    \override TextScript #'staff-padding = #'()
    \once \override TextScript #'extra-offset = #'(-1.0 . -3.8)
    r4^\markup { \fontsize #3 { "[ ]" } }
}

best,

lj
