Re: "D.C. al Fine" best practice

[karl]

 To typeset some text at the bar line, see
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/writing-text#text-marks

 under "Selected Snippets", there is also an example how to make it 
 appear at end of line.

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/align
 tells you how to make text "lines".

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/direction-and-placement#the-direction-property
 introduces a "direction" property, though is isn't obvious how to use 
 it in the da Capo context.

///

 Here is what I use in
http://aspodata.se/git/musik/JSBach/bwv128/

daCapo = {
  \once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'break-visibility = #end-of-line-visible
  \once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'self-alignment-X = #RIGHT
  \mark \markup \italic "Da Capo"
}


...
  \override Score.RehearsalMark #'direction = #DOWN
  \daCapo
  \bar "|."

 the result can be seen in the last page of:
