Thank you for your response.
I think you should not added control characters like newline to the
markup text.
yes, perhaps that is the case - I assumed any white space was
acceptable, but it seems in some circumstances to trigger this undesired
behavior.
When you want to have more than one line,
that was not the intention here - the intention was just to make the
markup source code easier to read. The original example where I hit this
"feature" involved markup with fret diagrams, where it is natural to
want to lay out the markup on several lines, and indeed this sometimes
works without side effects.
If this curious side effect from using different types of white space is
difficult to avoid in the LilyPond compiler then I can easily live with
it.
