Hello Mats,
Thanks so much for this. Sorry it took me so long to get to it --
I've been just crazy busy and had to put LilyPond on hold for a while.
Your solution works great, although "very easy to add one" ... I'm
not sure I would say "very". I don't understand most of the details
of the code. It doesn't seem as symmetrical as I would have thought
for a box. But I figured out how to remove whatever side I want and
I can just include these box functions in a separate file.
It was quite a nice feeling to have posted a question and have it
answered / solved so quickly. I don't have to wait for the next
version of the program to see if my concern had been addressed.
Thanks again,
Jeff.

Hello,
I'm new to using Lilypond, and Finale for that matter. I'm trying
to decide
which is better.
So far, what I like about Lilypond is that I seem to be able to do
just
about anything I want ... except this: I like the \box option
around a text
markup, but I would really like it if it only had three sides
(LEFT, TOP and
RIGHT -- or, LEFT, BOTTOM and RIGHT).
Is there anyway to customize this? Or maybe I have to write some
"function"
that draws three lines, but will bound itself around some text?
Right, there's no such function in LilyPond by default, but it's very
easy to add one. I just added an example in our snippet repository,
LSR, see http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?u=1&id=330
