Hi all,

I'm looking for a way to octavize a note with the least input possible. I
know there are music functions in the LSR that do this but they aren't very
useful to me because in the music I need this for the octaves usually aren't
successive and it wouldn't really save input if I had to write the function
for single pitches, even if the function name were reduced to a single
letter.
So I was wondering if this maybe could be achieved with custom note names,
maybe a capital letter for an additional octave. After a look at
define-note-names.scm I fear it's not but I thought I ask if a note name
accepts anything else than ly:make-pitch before I try to experiment on my
own.

For illustration I imagine the following snippet (relative)

*4 <d fis>8 * r <d fis> r   |
r8 <c d> r   r <c d> r <g g'> |

to become this

B4 <d fis>8 B r <d fis> r A |
r8 <c d> r A r <c d> r G |

or even better

B4 <d fis>8 B r q r A |
r8 <c d> r A r q r G |
