I'm very impressed!

Oops, my fault. Being a guitar player, "chord" more naturally refers
to "C" than <c e g>.

What I get now is that chord symbols come out twice. Once as a chord
symbol and once as a markup. E.g.,
<Bar BarNumber="2" Length="1024" >
<Text position="0" voicenumber="1" dx="24" dy="144" hidden="false"
Text="Bm7" StyleId="text.staff.space.chordsymbol"
TextWithFormattingAsString="Bm7" StyleAsText="Chord symbol"
></Text>
...
<Text position="512" voicenumber="1" dx="24" dy="144" hidden="false"
Text="E7" StyleId="text.staff.space.chordsymbol"
TextWithFormattingAsString="E7" StyleAsText="Chord symbol"
></Text>
produces
Soprano = {
...
r4^\markup {"Bm7"} e8^\markup {"E7"} fis8 gis8 a8 b8 c8 |%2
and
SopranoChords = {
\chords
...
b1*1/4:m7 e1*3/4:7 |%2
> Incidentally, what does F#m7(4) mean
Most likely that a piano player tries to write guitar chords :)
Thanks, thanks, thanks (and keep going!)
