Conversion to 2.17.13 (what I have here) leaves this unchanged. The error message is a different one, though. I can make the above work using \markup "Lyric" instead of Lyric. As you don't post the exact error message corresponding to your source file, I have no idea whether the error is triggered at the same point. At one point of time, I plan distinguishing Lyric and "Lyric" in function arguments, and then you'll get along without the disconcerting disambiguator "\markup". But that's somewhat unfinished yet. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
