Did you look at the LSR?
<http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=1024>

Does that not do what you need?

Hi Kieren,

Yes, I already looked at it, but as said in the previous email, this is not good IMHO because it breaks the common syntax for spanners (\startSpanner , \endSpanner ), which is much more easy and clean.

When there is more than one pedal, it is even worse.

Maybe a better approach is a fake pedal with the TextSpanner interface that implements the cautionary markup and which overlays a hidden pedal.

But I would like to have some feedback about this, so I can avoid possible side effects.

Best,

P
