First of all, congratulations on this attempt. It's very good.
You are correct. You are only returning the empty stencil.
You need the following:
#(define (make-dot-list l1)
(if (null? l1)
empty-stencil
(ly:stencil-add (make-dot (car l1)
(make-dot-list (cdr l1))))
This way, you are adding all the stencils. Previously, you were not doing
anything with the make-dot stencil. It was getting created, then thrown
away.
Good luck!
Carl
