2.23.5 and poly-mark-engraver https://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=976

[Joel C. Salomon]

I'm returning to an old project (last touched in 2016) on a new computer, and I’m running 2.23.5 on Windows 11.

Several of the scores used poly-mark-engraver from <https://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=976> (see also <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2011-08/msg00157.html>), and this now fails with

fatal error: cannot find music object: MarkEvent

(Minimal example below signature; the demonstration included in <https://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Snippet?id=976> also fails the same way.)

This is both a bug-report if anyone’s maintaining the snippet, and a question whether there’s now a better way to write da capo, al segno, and other coda-like repeats. \include "poly-mark-engraver.ly" % http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=976
