Yes. Mine was that such an error is fatal by definition, even if
misleadingly called "non-fatal."

If it is malformed, it can't be clear.
Of course, if you mean "clearly-malformed", then I contest this

Is there any way to apply an articulation (accent, staccato etc.) to a
musical expression instead of a single note?
For instance, if I have a variable like this:
c4 e g a
c a g e
is there any way to transform it to:
c4\staccato e\staccato g\staccato a\staccato
c\staccato a\staccato g\st

I’ve returned to a file I created under version 2.14.0, in which I used the

For the given examples, the non-zero exit code signifies failure, when lilypond
has actually completed its task - generating a PDF - successfully. And this
goes hand in hand with the misleading mess

Thank you all for your help on this.
My original question, "how does Lilypond recognize the end of the
definition of a variable" has been answered: the definition has to be a
single, complete expression.
Which of course produces another question: "what is classed as a single
expression?"
Well, I

We could implement an option for the maximum number of non-fatal errors
before abort. People who really do not want to have LilyPond continue
after an error can then set it to zero.

1. Your post answers your own question, doesn’t it? ;)
2. cf. David K’s mention of “bike-shedding” (which, I have to admit, I didn’t
know about until I searched it on the web).
