Some time ago I tried to define some markup-commands to handle
musicglyphs like `accidentals.sharp' as part of a larger string and
used them in music-functions.

These markup-commands used
(string-split <argument> #\. )

I never finished this work, but will it still be possible to use
(string-split <argument> #\. ) ?
