Or you can draw the simile yourself, as with the markup in
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2009-03/msg00709.html

But note that that thread was for version 2.12 so it uses a
#'stencil override; nowadays a #'text override is sufficient.


Thanks, both work perfectly! I already could not imagine I would be the first and only person with this question.

Shouldn't something frequently used like this be found in the snippets, or better still, included in LilyPond, instead of just in the mailinglist archives?
