This is not doing what Stjepan wants because he cannot use \bpm as a value for a header field.

I think i understand what this is about.
Stjepan would like to have the tempo value used both in header as well
as in actual tempo definition. It is possible to define a variable
and use it in the header:
trololo = 123
\header {
title = #(string-append
"bang! "
(number->string trololo)
" foobars in a bottle")
}
The problem is, as David already noticed, that a variable cannot be
used in \tempo command:
{
% this crashes:
\tempo 4 = \trololo
c'
}
Stjepan, is this what you mean?

That the \header variable "title" does not interpret numbers is not terribly surprising, at least not to me. It still _accepts_ setting the variable, and one can read it out again. It's just the titling itself that wants to see a string here. -- David Kastrup ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

First: it is impossible to guess what you want here since \tempo = "123"
would not be a valid command, and neither would be \tempo = 123.
Second: why do you have bpm defined inside of \header? Header variables
are not visible in the score.
I just tried
bpm = 123
\relative c' {
\tempo 4 = \bpm "%the header bpm variable
c'4
}
and found out that variables are not permitted in this place. Which is
probably an oversight rather than anything intentional. Feel free to
file a bug report. It might be quite simpler, however, just to write
bpm = \tempo 4 = 123
\relative c' {
\bpm
c'4
}
And can you _please_ _please_ _please_ stop appending the whole thing
you are replying to at the bottom of your mails?

Re: string->number scheme
ok..
i would want to insert the tempo one time..inside the header block..and
that it would apply to other tempo variables..
\header {
bpm = "123"
}
\relative c' {
\tempo = \bpm "%the header bpm variable

}
till now i didnt create any scheme function successfully..:P

The body of define-music-function needs to return music, so you probably
would want define-scheme-function instead.

I have no idea why you don't just write
bpm = 123
and that's that. Why go through a string in the first place?
