Re: Drum writing...is there a way to save and recall custom commands?

Thanks, that worked!  I am new at lilypond, so sorry for the basic questions
(I did browse the documentation, btw), but could somebody give me a quick
crash course in variables, for example, instead of the final sn hit being a
quarter note (sn4), say I wanted to make it a variable to change, so writing
\snflam16 would change the final note to a 16th note, \snflam8 would change
the final note to an 8th note, etc.  Could somebody write out that code
snippet so I could deduce the usage?
