Hi Robert (et al.),
> I think codas are formatted like this in most professional music scores.
Lilypond should continue in its tradition of (a) doing things very well, and
(b) wherever/whenever possible, doing things with incredible flexibility and
extensibility. Therefore, something along the lines of David K's syntax
suggestion
> \repeat coda 2 { %{ segno appears here %} common part }
> \alternative { { %{ coda sign here %} first part }
> { %{ actual coda formatted here %} coda } }
would (I think) be best, with switches and parameters and settings as to how
the layout engine should interpret this graphically.
Cheers,
Kieren.
