About a third of the examples are not even string interpolation but format-like functions. Probably because people wanted to see their favorite programming language mentioned in spite of it not qualifying. Of course Guile/LilyPond can work with format. > The point is, is it something we would want (i.e., is useful) in > LilyPond? We already have `format' and other string operations. I don't see that it makes sense to try outdoing Scheme in matters that are not really in LilyPond's domain. We have deprecated/undocumented/removed several of LilyPond's "native" constructs for forming expressions from ordinary Scheme data because there is no point in having everything twice. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
