Hi Simon,

Sorry, typing too quickly…

  \tag a,b

vs.

  \tag #’(a b)

Here the inconsistency — which is, ironically, highlighted by my mistake and 
your response :) — is explicitly described in the relevant docs page:

> If and only if the symbols are valid LilyPond identifiers (alphabetic 
> characters only, no numbers, underscores, or dashes) which cannot be confused 
> with notes, the #' may be omitted and, as a shorthand, a list of symbols can 
> use the comma separator: i.e., \tag #'(violinI violinII) can be written \tag 
> violinI,violinII.


So the Scheme list is space-separated but the “raw” list is comma-separated.

Thanks,
Kieren.
