How can I get a repeat symbol in the chord names part of lead sheet?

2017-01-12 Thread Rob Torop
I'm trying to figure out what to use for a chord name to get a "repeat" (percent) sign over one of the measures. Below is a complete small example. I want C over the first measure, repeat over the second measure, and D over the third measure. I'm sure this is trivial - I just can't find it!

Hi Werner et al.! *If* we bundle guile 1.8 with lilypond, I strongly prefer static linking of the library (this is, adding `--disable-shared' to guile's configure script, together with a proper argument to the `--datarootdir' option to install the .scm files under a lilypond directory). This
