I read my msg. and I found it not very clear. I hope this is a bit more
clear:
Suppose I have a variable containing the following music expression:
{
a4 b4 c'4 d'4 |
b4 b4 a4 a4 |
c'4 b4 a4 b4 |
a4 a4 c'4 a4 |
c'4 b4 a4 c'4
}
How can I get only the first n quarters of the variable? Something like:
\extractMusic \myVar 4
that should generate
{
a4 b4 c'4 d'4 |
}
?
