Ah, right. I understand now the manual means with "normal LilyPond input,
using $ (in places where only Lilypond constructs are allowed) or # (to use
it as a Scheme value or music function argument or music inside of music
lists) to reference arguments (eg. ‘#arg1’)." So, every time the input type
is ly:something, it should be with $, right?

Thank you so much, now my source is almost readable, and so much quicker!
