I've also tried this, but I get a compiler error for "wrong
number of arguments", which makes me wonder if I can replace
whatnumber more than once.
verseNumber = #(define-music-function(whatnumber)(string?)#{
\with { instrumentName = whatnumber shortInstrumentName
= whatnumber }
#})

In my music script I want to use this:
\new Lyrics \with { instrumentName = "1."
shortInstrumentName = "1." }
However, I would like to make a function out of it. I'm
looking at this page:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/learning/saving-typing-with-variables-and-functions
and this is what I have come up with, but I know this
isn't right. Can someone correct this for me?
Basically, I want to do this:
\new Lyrics \verseNumber #1
and have it create this:
\new Lyrics \with { instrumentName = "1."
shortInstrumentName = "1." }
