One could cheat: make-dynamic-script is currently defined as
#(define (make-dynamic-script str)
(make-music 'AbsoluteDynamicEvent
'text str))
and one could instead define it as
make-dynamic-script =
#(define-event-function (str) (ly:markup?)
(make-music 'AbsoluteDynamicEvent 'text str))
which would retain the old functionality while also providing
\make-dynamic-script
which of course does not follow naming conventions. Sigh. At any rate,
it should be defined using define-event-function rather than
define-music-function .
