Yes; I'm not sure what the function was written for, if using it in the way I did is "appalling". > Probably best to changed it into a property.

I noticed that define-bar-line was the only other occurrence of [void] - bar (string) in the Notation manual, but that meant nothing to me. Now I have another target to think about: how music functions work. Thanks for the snippet.
