A rehearsal mark (created with `\mark`) is, well, for rehearsal. It's just a convenient alternative or supplement to bar numbers. A section label (`\sectionLabel`) tells something about the music. For example, "Coda". This doesn't just mark a point in the score like "D" does, but implies something about the musical form. Same with "Intro" or "Chorus". Rehearsal marks have different default formatting than section labels. A metronome mark (`\tempo`), also called tempo mark, is for what the name says. A jump script (`\repeat segno` or `\jump`) indicates a jump in the performance, typically "Da capo", "Dal segno al coda" or such. The last type of textual marks is generic text marks (`\textMark` or `\textEndMark`), which are for everything that doesn't fit in the other categories. > @Laurie, the segno repeat is new in 2.25.x Nope, \repeat segno is from 2.23.6 (but the various repeat-related enhancements around it were gradually introduced across the 2.23 series).
