\flageolet in \markup

[Ralph Palmer]

Greeetings -

I'm running LilyPond 2.12.2 under Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala).

I'm trying to include a flageolet (for indicating a natural harmonic on a stringed instrument) in a markup, and I can't figure out how to do it. I'm including two snippets and the PDF of the one that will run. The snippet with \flageolet included fails, with an error of "unexpected event identifier". I would guess that I need a character identifier for the flageolet, but I can't find it. I've tried including \flageolet in double quotes, but that just produces \flageolet in the markup.

I appreciate your attention and help,

Ralph
