It does work, but you probably don't like its result. At any rate, I
like
bf8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8
better. Particularly useful for percussion, but generally useful for
rhythmical patterns on the same pitch/chord. It doesn't save all that
much typing but the result tends to be clearer to read when leaving off
the pitches rather than the lengths.
I think it's 2.19 stuff, though.
