That's really good. If I might make a suggestion, it would be nice to have an additional feature whereby the tempo can be set silently (perhaps controlled by a boolean context property), which would allow the text to be displayed while preserving the default behaviour of \tempo. > So, what shall I change in the patch? Do you need to have two extra functions in ly-syntax-constructors.scm? They seem a bit out of place there, since they're too specific (being a subset of tempo). Could the tempo function be rewritten to incorporate the other options, with default values being passed by the parser for the properties not set?
