Thanks David.
This appears to work fine when adding markup to a staff (as in annotating
below the staff). However, I'm trying to reference chords using this
notation in text, in a music theory discussion regarding chord resolution.
Since this isn't within lilypond markup, I don't think I can use this.
I tried the obvious in my .lytex file:
\lilypondfile[quote,noindent]{rN.ly}
\begin[fragment,quote,staffsize=26,verbatim]{lilypond}
\rN { V 4/3 }
\end{lilypond}
As well as preceeding the \rN with \markup, and both result in errors such
as:
lilypond-book --output=out --pdf bar.lytex
lilypond-book (GNU LilyPond) 2.16.2

Any suggestions? Or should I just try to figure out the
superscript-subscript tex macros to make this work? Thanks.
