Re: \finger \markup \tied-lyric option for tie to appear above numbers

[tisimst]

Eugene,

I had to do this recently, so here's a simple function catered for this
exact purpose. It uses two string numbers as input and looks very similar
to the normal downward tie (and could be further developed to act more
robustly like the \tied-lyric function, but my needs didn't stretch that
far):

#(define-markup-command (tied-finger-up layout props f1 f2)
   (string? string?)
   (interpret-markup layout props
     #{
       \markup {
       \override #'(baseline-skip . 1.2)
       \center-column {
         \scale #'(1 . -1) \musicglyph #"ties.lyric.default"
         \concat { #f1 \hspace #0.6 #f2 }
       }
       }
     #}
   ))

{ d''2\finger \markup { \tied-finger-up #"1" #"4" } }

Like I said, it could be further developed so that it follows the same
input syntax of #"1~4", but there's still some Scheme-fu for me to come to
grips with. I agree, though, that it would be nice to just write "1^~4"
into the \tied-lyric function and have it do it automagically :-)

Maybe I'll have a look at that myself. The only issue I can't quickly
understand is how to use the various markup functions in Scheme-mode.
Perhaps someone with more experience can help out here.
