Hello David. I added your suggestions but nothing compiles correctly even
after I replaced the functions you speak of. How can this be fixed to use
your suggestion correctly? :))

%====

\version "2.19.82"

spToNatSpan = {
  \override TextSpanner.font-size = #-4
  \override TextSpanner.bound-padding = #1.0
  \override TextSpanner.style = #'line
  \override TextSpanner.bound-details.right.arrow = ##t
  \override TextSpanner.bound-details.left.text = #"SP"
  \override TextSpanner.bound-details.right.text = #"NAT"
  \override TextSpanner.bound-details.right.padding = #0.6
  \override TextSpanner.bound-details.right.stencil-align-dir-y = #CENTER
  \override TextSpanner.bound-details.left.stencil-align-dir-y = #CENTER
  \override TextSpanner.bound-details.left-broken.text = ##f
  \override TextSpanner.bound-details.right-broken.text = ##f
}

sulPont = -\single \spToNatSpan \startTextSpan
stopSulPont = -\endTextSpan


treble = {
  \time 4/4

  \spToNatSpan
  c''4\sulPont c'' c'' c''\stopSulPont |
  c'' c'' c''\sulPont c'' |
  c'' c'' c'' c'' |
  \break
  c'' c''\stopSulPont c'' c''\sulPont |
  \break
  c''\stopSulPont c'' c'' c'' |
  \break
  % how to revert to basic TextSpanner here?
  \revert TextSpanner.bound-details
  c''\sulPont c''\stopSulPont c'' c'' |
}

\score {
  \new Staff \treble
  \layout {}
}
