Maybe. We would have to decide whether \mark is a verb or a noun. If it’s a verb, the command could be \markEnd. \end... might create some mental tension given that there are \stop… commands for spans. In my mind, it would be appropriate to use this feature for an instruction such as “optional cut to m. 66,” which I would associate more closely with the beginning of the section to be cut rather than the end of the preceding section. > Other idea: \goTo.

On the other hand, \goTo seems unlikely to resemble whatever we settle on for the grob name… unless everyone likes GoToScript. > Naming the grob is also tricky.

Gould uses the words “point of departure” (p. 239). If she had meant it as jargon, she would have put it in her index, but I latched onto it anyway. — Dan _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
