Hi Kieren,

No

Yep, though look at the output of:

#(write-me "markup->string "
  (markup->string
  #{
    \markup
      \with-dimensions #'(-1 . 1) #'(-1 . 1)
      \with-color #blue
      "xy"
  #}))

It returns an empty string.
with-color-markup is not considered by markup->string, worth a
bug-report, I'd say, and quite easily to fix
Though, for with-dimensions-markup some more work would be needed.
Markup-commands with more than two arguments are not considered at
all.

At any rate markup->string feels more than a workaround, which may
give results in a large amount of cases, but not for all.


Continuing coding/thinking,
  Harm
