Hi Nick,

in scores for guitar-music the execution of trills are often indicated
not only with the fingers, which should be used, but with a sort of
slur above them. (Ofcourse you know that. :) )

So I remembered that Jan made some nice undertie-markup-command, issue 3088
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3088
I took that code, slightly modified it (adding some properties, etc)
and added an overtie-markup-command.
In the end I wrote a define-event-function, named slurTrill.

I think there's a wide range for improvements, but it works for now.

\version "2.17.20"

\include "undertie-02.ly"

\relative f'' {
  \override Fingering.font-encoding = #'latin1
  \override Fingering.font-size = #-2
  \override Fingering.font-series = #'bold

  <g-4\2>
  <f-2>
  \once \set fingeringOrientations = #'(left up)
  <f\slurTrill "4242" d-3>
  f\slurTrill "4242"
}


Cheers,
  Harm
