I'm trying to enclose some lyrics
within square brackets but, for reasons too tedious to trouble
the list with*, I'd like to parameterise the brackets using
the \foo and \fooEnd constructs in the following pseudocode.
Is there a way to do this without causing "[" and "]" to be
set as separate syllables?
hopefully,

Thanks Urs.
I'm hoping to preserve the \prefixOperator bunch of text
\postfixOperator syntax, so that the operator definition can be
swapped simply for other things that use that syntax, such as:
foo = \override LyricText.color = #red
fooEnd = \revert LyricText.color
I could adapt your suggestion if I could think of a way to feed
the previous syllable of underlay to \fooEnd
So you need a way to also say
Three \start deaf and blind \end mice
to give you
Three [deaf and blind] mice
?
Then you simply need three functions:
\foo (= start)
\bar (= end)
\foobar (for a single syllable).
I think you can adjust my proposal for start/end-only situations
easily.
