Thanks so much, Andrew--never would have figured that out.
Have a long way to go before I understand the sort of code you provided
so I just experimented with various examples I found that contained the
word "markup" until I got successful compilation. That crude
trial-and-error gave me a working adaptation that shrinks the text so
that it more or less fits:
... (markup #:tiny #:italic"pickup"))
and I now see how markups in lambda functions or whatever they're called
can be formatted.
Anyone with suggestions for points 1 and 2?

1. Vertical alignment/positioning of bar numbers. In the output the
parenthetical bar number for the anacrusis is higher than the remaining
bar numbers.
a. How can I lower it, and how can I raise the others? Are there
commands that would automatically ensure that all are at the same
vertical position?
b. Not as important: is there a way to raise/lower any given bar
number independently?
2. Full control over horizontal alignment of bar numbers. I (think
I) want the bar number for the anacrusis to appear just right of the
clef. I found commands that change the object its aligned to, but none
of those positions were satisfactory. How can move it horizontally
exactly where I want it? Not as important: Is the procedure different
for other individual bar numbers?

Hi Steve,
Re point 3:
You can do this:
\once \set Score.barNumberFormatter = #(lambda (bar-number
measure-position alternative-number extra)
(markup "pickup"))
But note that the length of the text in this case is problematic.
Nevertheless, you may find this formatter very adaptable.

3. Changing bar number text. Can I change the text for the anacrusis
bar number to something other than "(1)"? Like "0" or "pickup"?
