But perhaps someone else can make use of this idea.
\applyContext is called at the time music is interpreted (usually quite remote from the text entry). At that point, (*location*) tends to point to something nonsensical, and the execution of \applyContext's function does not pass a pointer to the originating music expression (where the origin would be recorded). So one needs to call (*location*) in a wrapper function that then uses the result in a closure passed to applyContext. _If_ one goes the applyContext route, that is. Another option would be to have applyContext fetch the origin and make it available in the %location fluid. That seems a bit wasteful but likely would not result in noticeable performance impacts. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
