Having an `\abs-' prefix is easy to remember. I would favor this more than `\absoluteSizeOn', but I fully agree that defining everything twice is error-prone. What about adding a `meta macro' (or special form, or whatever) that generates absolute and non-absolute versions? I imagine something like (make-relative-absolute (define-markup-command (foo ...) ...)) to create \foo and \abs-foo. No idea whether this is possible at all, however. In case it *is* possible, we should probably continue the discussion on lilypond-devel.

Bad warning when misusing a melisma?
In the following example, the melisma is used improperly:
%% -- Start
\version "2.19.15"
\language "english"
theNotes = \relative c' {
c4 c c c | c b8 a b4 r4 |
}
theLyrics = \lyricmode {
On -- ward Chris -- tian sol _ -- diers
}
\score {
<<
\new Staff \theNotes
\addlyrics \theLyrics
>>
\layout {
}
}
%% -- End
A warning is emitted, as it should, but here is the text:
Parsing...
Interpreting music...
programming error: hyphen not finished yet
continuing, cross fingers
In this example it's easy to see where the problem is, but in a large
piece, it would be nice to have a line number. Also, I'm not sure
"programming error" is the best way to describe the problem. I wouldn't
call this a bug, but maybe a suggestion for improvement.
Your thoughts?

Re: Lyric Spacing With Slurs - Help Requested
Br. Jorgensen,
I used your snippet (with slight corrections) and I don't get any
spacing errors (see attached). Here's my code:
%<- SNIP --
\score {
<<
\new Staff \relative c' {
\time 3/4
\key g \major
e4( f) g | f( d) fis |
}
\addlyrics {
San -- ctus | San -- ctus |
}
>>
}
%<- SNIP --
Now, if there are other synchronized staves in the same system that
have more movement than this vocal selection, this may be the cause,
but without more information (if there is more), I can't see any error
in your code (i.e., there's no reason the middle notes should get
pushed out since no text is attached to them via the melisma).
Regards,
Abraham
