Re: using a scheme function, but with a different name

[Stefan Thomas]

Dear David,

thanks for Your help.

There seems to be a problem with the function itself.

Whith the below quoted snippet, I get the error:
taktartentest.ly:3:21: error: GUILE signaled an error for the _expression_ beginning here
fourquarterRests = #
                    (define-music-function (parser location  ANFANG  ENDE ) (number?  number? )

Here is the snippet:

\version "2.18.0"
fourquarterRests = #(define-music-function (parser location  ANFANG  ENDE ) (number?  number? )
global = {
\time 4/4 s1*4
}
Music = \relative c' {
  \fourquarterRests #1 #2
c4 c d d e e d d
}
\score {
<<
\new Devnull \global
\new Staff \Music
>>
}

IVvR = #fourquarterRests

if I understand what you want.  The description leaves something to be
desired.
