If you put something within double quotes, LilyPond will treat it as
a single character string. In my opinion, this makes perfect sense.
How else would you for example be able to print the text "\flat"
in you needed it?

\version "2.8.0"

This doesn't work:

{ c''1^\markup{ "B \flat" } }

These work:

{ c''1^\markup{ B \flat } }

{ c''1^\markup{ \line{ B \flat } } }

I needed something to work in \column. I first tried the quotes which didn't work and then \line which did. I would prefer the quotes to work. Is this a bug?

Thanks,

Paul Scott
