it works on one note and an none - i added dynamic markup for you
Long =
#(define-music-function
(parser location str dyn)
(number? string?)
#{
-\markup
{
\halign #-1
\rotate #180
\combine
\draw-line #`(,str . 0.7)
\draw-line #`(,str . -0.7)
\dynamic $dyn
}
#}
)
{
c''4_\Long #-15.5 "f"
}
{
c''4_\Long #-15.5 "p"
}
{
c''4_\Long #-15.5 ""
}
