This makes sense! I tried to use TextScript but it didn't work.
fN = #(define-music-function (parser location fretp ) (string?)
#{
\once \override TextScript #'self-alignment-X = #RIGHT
\once \override TextScript #'direction = #DOWN
\mark \markup { \box \italic \small $fretp }
#}
)
If you write the contents of the music function in the file rather
than a text script
I'm sorry but I don't understand what you are saying? Could you possibly
make a code sample
Try to see whether you can convince your mail client to include code
without removing its indentation and double-spacing the lines. Makes
it easier to talk about code.
Sorry about this. In the mails I get the code looks OK.
I hope that the code above is looking Ok. If not please let me know and
I try something different.
BTW, is it possible to attach files with the mail. This might be better
when I'm referencing some code?
Thanks for all you help!

You make overrides for a TextScript but still use a mark here.

contents of the music function is everything between #{ ... #}, and if
you copy this into your file instead of \fn, it will look just like the
result of the function. That is, the function works fine and quite as
intended for replacing a mark with a mark expressed in a different
manner, namely by routing it through a music function. However, you are
replacing a textscript with a mark, which is something quite different,
and also looking different in input, and documented differently.

Still double-spaced.
Anyway, you ask why different things look different. It is because they
are different things. There is not really more to it than that. The
real question is why this poses a problem for you, and what it is you
are actually trying to achieve.

\mark is the only one I have found that output a text, but obviously

So what is the command I should use??

Sorry I thought I had explained this. I want the first result. Where the
number is located directly under the note or chord.

Thunderbird does not really seem to like quoting code... This now was a
mixed HTML/plain text mail. The plain text version looked actually
fine, so it is not quite clear why you would need a combined mail just
to get the correct plain text version out. The HTML rendition here used
non-breakable spaces...

Then you should not be using a mark. If you want to be using a
textscript, this is actually more fun to do with current versions of
LilyPond (2.15.not-too-old). It would look something like
fN = #(define-event-function (parser location fretp ) (string?)
#{
_\markup { \box \italic \small #fretp }
#})
The closest you can get with 2.14 is something like
fN = #(define-music-function (parser location fretp ) (string?)
(make-music 'TextScriptEvent
'text (markup #:box #:italic #:small $fretp)
'direction DOWN))
if you are lucky, and even then you will have to use it as
-\fN whatever
rather than just \fN whatever.

Actually, no point to use a string? predicate then: markup? is a
superset and more versatile, and it will accept ordinary strings just
fine as well.

I will try to make the mails plain text!

That was my first attempt! Seems like I'm thinking a bit ahead

Aha! Suddenly a light came on!
A BIG Thank You for persevering while I get my act together!

function does not replicate \markup?
I have just made my first Lilypond function!
but somehow it doesn't do what I want it to do...
The box with the number isn't located at the same position and it's a
bigger size.
WHY?

Because it is a rehearsal mark rather than a text script? If you write
the contents of the music function in the file rather than a text
script, the results should be pretty much identical.
