In your definitions file, you might try: tsCut = { \once \override Score.TimeSignature #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print \once \override Score.TimeSignature #'text = \markup { \musicglyph #"timesig.C22" } }
and, if you need it: tsCommon = { \once \override Score.TimeSignature #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print \once \override Score.TimeSignature #'text = \markup { \musicglyph #"timesig.C44" } } which would be invoked in the score by typing (for instance): \tsCut \time 4/2 or \tsCommon \time 17/8 Subsequent meter changes would be typeset normally.
