Dear list
The LilyPond-project that I'm presently working on deals with some 40 songs, voice and a keyboard instrument, with comments and explanations underneath each score, some with small musical examples.
In these comments I would like interval names like 5ths and 8ves to be written with "ths" and "ves" as superscript, but up till now none of super scrip t possibilities I found in the LilyPond Notation Reference worked in the \markup -part of the file. They sometimes even made the whole comment disappear.
See the MWE below. (not so minimal, my apologies). What can I do to get these superscripts?
(Both the music and the comment are fictional. Just found some snippets that could serve my purpose here.)
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.18.2"
\relative c'
{
\new Staff { \omit Staff.TimeSignature \clef treble \time 3/2
<<
{\stemUp cis'2 \once \hideNotes b4 \once \hideNotes b b2 }\bar "||"
\new Voice {\voiceTwo \stemDown a2 \set fontSize = #-4 \single \hide Stem gis4 \single \hide Stem fis4^- \unset fontSize e2 |}
>>
<<
{\stemUp fis2 \once \hideNotes r4 \once \hideNotes r4 e2 } \bar "||"
\new Voice {\voiceTwo \stemDown d2 \set fontSize = #-4 \single \hide Stem cis4 \single \hide Stem b4^- \unset fontSize a2 |}
>>
}\bar "||"
}
}
}
\markup {
\fill-line {" "
{
\column {
\left-align {
"Sometimes hidden parallel 5ths can be tolerated but these could have been avoided by contrary movement." "The same goes for parallel 8ves."
} %end left-align
} %end Column
}
} % end fill-line
} %end markup

Thanks in advance for any advice.
