Hi Ian,

LilyPond adds space between all markups. To glue two or more things
together you need to use the \concat function, e.g.:

\markup {
  \concat { a \italic {b c} d \italic "e f" g. }
}

By the way, version 2.12, if that is what you are using, is well out of
date. You should upgrade to 2.18. It's 100% awesome!

Kevin
