I will start over.   What I was trying to say is that the # (my example) is
a new glyph to Lilypond; and it has the name “accidentals.sharp” and the
code “is” (and others).   I am trying to understand this because I want to
create some accidentals of my own.



I assume that the “#” is not ‘markup’.  I do not understand what ‘markup’
is; I do know that is has something to do with text.



Also, I know that some of the accident are created with markup.



My original question was how is a glyph correctly named?  I have read
mf/README several times I think I have that part.



Then there is the code name, what is the correct way to name the code?   Why
two names; why not just the code name?



For my use I would like to be able to use one or more glyphs with a note.




I would like to start by using an unused accidental section of the SMuFL
Unicode.



Thank you,

ƒg
