That "4" is actually a simple example of a common construct - it means
the fourth repeated bar. If I had had six bars, it might have had "4",
"5", "6" - it always starts counting at the first bar, but usually only
prints the count starting some way in (as here, with 4). It's also very
commonly used when you have cue parts, the player may have 16 or more
bars rest with cues.
There’s no tool doing _all_ that, but there’s the
Measure_counter_engraver, which goes a long way:
<http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/snippets/repeats#repeats-numbering-groups-of-measures>.
\score {
\new Voice <<
\repeat percent 4 { c'4 d' e' f' }
{ s1*3 \override Staff.MeasureCounter.count-from = 4
\startMeasureCount s1 \stopMeasureCount }
>>
\layout {
\context {
\Staff
\consists "Measure_counter_engraver"
}
}
}
This could be simplified by – guess what: a music function.
Best, Simon
