You are not posting your actual code and your actual error messages.
The above will fail because of a missing space after neomensural alone.

Please try to come up with a complete small example exhibiting your
problem.

Using Variables

[Johannes Roeßler]

Hi Group,

I try to define this:

neo = {\once \override NoteHead.style = #'neomensural}

but it leads to errors in the following parts (no error message 
regarding the variable definition though...)


What am I doing wrong?

Best regards

Reducing properties junk using variables

[Stjepan Horvat]

Hi..

I have a lot of properties junk that I use to override some properties in
each file of my song book so i was thinking that I could make some include
files eg config.ly. In what way could i define this functions from what I
have.

\new ChordNames {
  \semiGermanChords
  \override ChordName #'font-size = #3
  \override ChordName #'font-name = #Free Serif
  \set chordRootNamer = #my-chord-name-pop-markup
  \set chordChanges = ##t
  \chords
   }

So i whould only use something like that:

\new ChordNames { \mySettings \chords }

Thanks.

Did you try simply

mySettings = {
  \semiGermanChords
  \override ChordName #'font-size = #3
  \override ChordName #'font-name = #Free Serif
  \set chordRootNamer = #my-chord-name-pop-markup
  \set chordChanges = ##t
}

\new ChordNames { \mySettings \chords }

?

Or alternatively you could define you settings in the layout block :

\layout {
  \context {
\ChordNames
% semiGermanChords
chordRootNamer = #(chord-name-german-markup #f)
chordNoteNamer = #note-name-german-markup

\override ChordName #'font-size = #3
\override ChordName #'font-name = #Free Serif
chordRootNamer = #my-chord-name-pop-markup
chordChanges = ##t
  }
}

Cheers,
Xavier
