Hello list,
I have a lot of small music pieces with several stanzas which I store

Why? If you want them processed automatically, why do you put them into
dissociated macros and expect Lilypond to go hunting for them?
How would you store several stanzas? It seemed very straightforward to use
one variable (or macro) for one stanza.
It is reasonably easy to generate symbol names, check whether there is
anything bound to them, and collect them into some music, but it is also
arbitrary and error-prone.
Is there a particular reason you want your stanzas to be stored in a
manner not useful for the processing you plan to do with them?
Well, this was the easiest way that came into my mind, but it may be
complete nonsens
to do so - any more powerful ideas are highly appreciated.
Regards,
Marc
