Something like this?

\version "2.19.81"

t =
#(define-event-function (n) (index?)
  #{ \tweak text #(format "~dt" n) -1 #})

{
  c\t1 d\t2 e2
}

interesting! As you know David, to indicate a finger on the 4th row of the accordion right keyboard, we circle the finger number. This same notation is used on violin/guitar etc. to indicate a chord number.

For example if I need to indicate a "c" pitch to play on the 4th row I write "c\4". 

Wouldn't be better to define a custom fingering function for that so that it is treated as a fingering? 

Thank you, g.

P.S. Sorry Federico for my misinterpretation
