Hello all,
Lilypond and I are disagreeing about some syntax in 2.8, hopefully
someone can help...
I have a statement like
hn = { \markup{Hn.} }
in the body of my .ly file; it's not inside any blocks or anything,
it's just out by itself. Lilypond claims that the above statement is
a syntax error, but I have a line directly above it like
bigBar = { \bar "||" \mark \default }
Is there something special about the \markup command that prevents it
from being used in shortcuts like that?
Also, I'm having difficulty understanding the syntax of the \column
command. The manual tells me I should give it a "list of args", but
gives no idea as to what delimiters such a list would use. (A single
example would go a long way here.) Can someone provide a simple
example of \column?
Thanks a lot for any help!
