Maybe http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=465 or

That seems to only allow the same note in the pattern.

 

http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=654 is the right thing for you?

That looks more flexible, I think it would solve my immediate problem, thank you very much.

The downside is that it looks more complicated, so I would also like to learn to write the function myself. I think the docs can use a few more examples, and I am happy to contribute them.

As you noted, Aaron gave you a very detailed yet concise explanation. If you want to learn more about Scheme in LilyPond you can - as a complement - have a look at my attempt to give slow-paced explanations. It is really far from being complete, but I think what *is* there may be helpful for a better understanding: https://scheme-book.ursliska.de
