Hello,

Since the documentation explicitly states that tremolo only works with "\tremolo 2", I think this is a feature request.

I need to write a piece with a tremolo like fast repetition. But since there are three notes in this repetition, the
  \repeat tremolo n { x y }
doesn't work.
As already written on lilypond-user:
the "n" in "\repeat tremolo n { x y }" isn't related to your feature request. "n" indicates how often the portion inside the curly brackets are to be repeated. "n" can take any value resulting in a reasonable overall length (i.e. something that can be expressed in a single - regular or dotted - note). You can repeat a group of two 32rds (for example) one, two, three, four or six times, but not five (for example).

Minimal example (doesn't work):

\score {
   \new Staff {
    \time 3/4
    \repeat tremolo 2 { b8. c' }
    \repeat tremolo 3 { b8. c' d }
  }
}

The attached scan is from a piece with "\time 3/4".

Regards,
Helge
