Hi Aaron,
\tweak form is a little shorter, although you could bake this into a
function if you needed to use this a lot:
%%%%
\version "2.22.0"
"\\@" =
#(define-music-function
(staff-position music)
(integer? ly:music?)
#{ \tweak staff-position #staff-position #music #})
\new DrumStaff \drummode { bd4 sn \@4 r4 r8 \@-4 r }
%%%%
Not sure if \@ is a good name for this, but it is conveniently short
like \=.
I think the naming is a stroke of genius :-). But perhaps surprisingly,
David Kastrup's \etc shorthand is even robust enough to allow for:
\version "2.22.0"
"\\@" = \tweak staff-position \etc
\new DrumStaff \drummode { bd4 sn \@2 r4 r8 \@-4 r }
