Possibly there is a quick fix, and the version > you cite is workable. I got the linked version to compile with a simple change: Line 460 of the .ily file (function: add-grob-definition): (set-object-property! grob-name 'translation-type? list?) should be (set-object-property! grob-name 'translation-type? ly:grob-properties?) Another thing: if you are compiling multiple LY files, you will run into problems. A "fix" for this is to comment out/remove lines 88-89 in define-grob-property. The error arises because the property definition persists, so it looks like we are trying to coopt an existing property name. > Quick fixes aside, I gave up on this a long time ago, so no enhancements > for the foreseeable future :) (The archives give a record of the problems > I had and couldn't solve by myself.) > > Yes, I saw posts that looked problem-y. =\ > I can see sharpening the code up.

It will not work with multiple staves, David
