Re: cre - - sen - - do

Hello :)

This is trivial, but having functions like these might help ease typing a lot:

#(define (span-maker type)

   (lambda (text)

     (make-music 'type

                 'span-direction START

                 'span-type 'text

                 'span-text text)))

textCresc =

#(define-event-function (parser location text)

   (markup?)

   ((span-maker 'CrescendoEvent) text))

textDecresc =

#(define-event-function (parser location text)

   (markup?)

   ((span-maker 'DecrescendoEvent) text))

%% usage

{ b2\textCresc "cres" b

  b\textCresc "cen" b

  b\textCresc "do" b

  b1\f }

Best,

Writing a chain of crescendos spelling out each syllable is possible

{ b2-\tweak#'text"cres"\cresc b
  b-\tweak#'text"cen"\cresc b
  b-\tweak#'text"do"\cresc b
  b1\f }
