Hi Urs, I think that's not possible, because a "string" would have to contain specific characters, i.e. character numbers, and the Emmentaler notation glyphs don't have nailed-down character numbers. >From LilyPond version to LilyPond version, as more glyphs are added, all the others will be shifted around. That's why music glyphs have to be accessed via their glyph name and never can be reliably found at a certain place within the font. The only exception are the "alphabet" characters, i.e. the dynamic characters, numbers and some of the punctuation such as m, f, p, 1, 2, 3, : etc. All the other glyphs (clefs, noteheads, flags, etc.) cannot be accessed by simply passing over a string because these characters are nomads without definite character codes. The only solution is to dynamically build such a string, and this string will be different for each notation font.
