I am confused as well. I don't understand his code in terms of his question
because c4:7.9- is not a half-diminished chord, it is an altered chord that
should print as C7b9.
The default rendering of a C half-diminished chord of c4:min7.5- in LilyPond,
at least prior to 2.17, would be Cø and my guess is that he wants it printed as
Cmin7b5 or C-7b5. To achieve that the OP needs to write a chordname exception.
