I have a programmatically generated score and am now realizing that I want to make a small tweak to text markups that are throughout the score in multiple files that are included at multiple levels.
" 1↑" replace with " 1" (e.g. remove the up arrow when it is preceded by a 1)
Is it possible to do this with a global search and replace on compile such that I do not need to edit each individual file (of which there are hundreds) manually?
LilyPond does support basic replacements for text markup:
%%%%
\paper {
#(add-text-replacements! '(("1↑" . "1")))
}
%%%%
