note-names definitions file!

now it compiles! also adding \language "myLanguage" does not produce any
errors.

but adding {ceses} gives the next error:

Using `myLanguage' note names...
test2.ly:9:2: error: syntax error, unexpected STRING
  
  ceses

what's wrong here? the full code is:

  \version "2.15"
  #(set! language-pitch-names
    (cons `(myLanguage 
             ((ceses . ,(ly:make-pitch -1 0 DOUBLE-FLAT))))
           language-pitch-names))
  \language myLanguage
  mus = {  ceses }

not if i don't have to - the main question was how to add such definitions
in a different file.

i am trying to find a better way to add fingerings to voices and for this it
would be nice to get the notes consisting of only one letter and special
characters like flats ♭ and sharps ♯. this could be implemented in
http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?u=1&id=768 

thanks for your help up to now!
