+@funindex \markup
+
+A @code{\markup} block is used to typeset text with an extensible
+specific syntax called @qq{markup mode}.
+
+@cindex markup expressions
+@cindex markup syntax
+
+The markup syntax is similar to LilyPond's usual syntax: a
+@code{\markup} expression is enclosed in curly braces @code{@{
+@dots{} @}}.
+
+Unlike simple @q{quoted text} indications, @code{\markup} blocks
+may contain nested expressions or specific commands,
+entered using the backslash @code{\} character.
+Such commands only affect the first following expression.
+
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim,fragment,relative=1]
+e1-\markup "intenso"
+a2^\markup { poco \italic più forte }
+c e1
+d2_\markup { \italic "string. assai" }
+e
+b1^\markup { \bold { molto \italic agitato } }
+c
+@end lilypond
-A @code{\markup} block is used to typeset text with an extensible syntax,
-called @q{markup mode}.
-Specific commands can be entered in this mode, using the
-backslash @code{\} character.
-@c TODO: move the following sentence (and add an example?) -vv
-To @emph{print} such characters as
-@code{\} and @code{#} in the output, use double
-quotation marks.

+@cindex printing special characters
+@cindex quoted text in markup mode
+
+A @code{\markup} block may also contain quoted text, which
+can be useful to print special characters such as @code{\} and @code{#},
+or even double quotation marks -- these have to be preceded
+with backslashes:
+
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim,fragment,relative=1]
+\clef bass
+a^\markup "##\ LEPORELLO \##"
+a_\markup "Bravi! \"Cosa rara\"!"
+r a8 d
+cis a r4 r2
+@end lilypond
+
+The way markup expressions are defined affects
+how these expressions will stacked, centered and aligned
+when using the commands explained in @ref{Text alignment}.
+
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim,fragment,relative=1]
+c1^\markup { \column { a bbbb \line { c d } } }
+c1^\markup { \center-align { a bbbb c } }
+c1^\markup { \line { a b c } }
+@end lilypond
+
+Lists of words that are not enclosed with double quotes
+or preceded by a command are not treated as a distinct
+expression. In the following example, the first two
+@code{\markup} expressions are equivalent:
@lilypond[quote,verbatim,fragment,relative=1]
-c1^\markup { hello }
-c1_\markup { hi there }
-c1^\markup { hi \bold there, is \italic {anyone home?} }
-c1_\markup { "\special {weird} #characters" }
+c1^\markup { \center-align { a bbb c } }
+c1^\markup { \center-align { a { bbb c } } }
+c1^\markup { \center-align { a \line { bbb c } } }
+@end lilypond
+
+
+Markups can be stored in variables. These variables may be
+directly attached to notes:
+
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim]
+allegro = \markup { \bold \large Allegro }
+
+{
+ d''8.^\allegro
+ d'16 d'4 r2
+}
@end lilypond
+
@noindent
An exhaustive list of @code{\markup}-specific commands can be found in
@ref{Text markup commands}.
-@code{\markup} blocks can be used anywhere text is called,
-and not only for @internalsref{TextScript}s objects.

+@cindex font families
+
+The markup mode provides an easy way to select alternate
+font families. The default serif font, of roman type, is

+between the first and the second word.

+Some objects may have alignment procedures of their own,
+and therefore are not affected by these commands. It is
+possible to move such markup objects as a whole, as shown
+for instance in @ref{Text marks},
+
+@cindex text, vertical alignment
+@cindex vertical text alignment
+@funindex \raise
+@funindex \lower
+
+Vertical alignment is a bit more complex. As stated above,
+markup objects can be moved as a whole; however, it is also
+possible to move specific elements inside a markup block.
+In this case, the element to be moved needs to be preceded
+with an @emph{anchor point}, that can be another markup element
+or an invisible object. The following example demonstrates these
+two possibilities; the last markup in this example has no anchor
+point, and therefore is not moved.
-To keep lists of words distinct, please use quotes @code{"} or

-Markups can be stored in variables and these variables may be
-attached to notes, like
+@cindex multi-line markup
+@cindex multi-line text
+@cindex columns, text
-@example
-allegro = \markup @{ \bold \large @{ Allegro @} @}
- @{ a^\allegro b c d @}
-@end example
+A markup object may include several lines of text.
+In the following example, each element or expression
+is placed on its own line, either left-aligned or centered:
-Some objects have alignment procedures of their own, which cancel
-out any effects of alignments applied to their markup arguments as
-a whole. For example, the @internalsref{RehearsalMark} is
-horizontally centered, so using @code{\mark \markup @{ \left-align
-.. @}} has no effect.

+ }
+ \hspace #10
+ \center-align {
+ a
+ "b c"
+ \line { d e f }
+ }
+}
+@end lilypond
-In addition, vertical placement is performed after creating the
-text markup object. If you wish to move an entire piece of
-markup, you need to use the #'padding property or create an
-@q{anchor} point inside the markup (generally with @code{\hspace
-#0}).
+Similarly, a list of elements or expressions may be
+spread to fill the entire horizontal line width -- if there
+is only one element, it will be centered on the page.
+These expressions can, in turn, include multi-line text
+or any other markup expression:
-@lilypond[quote,verbatim,fragment,relative=1]
-\textLengthOn
-c'4^\markup{ \raise #5 "not raised" }
-\once \override TextScript #'padding = #3
-c'4^\markup{ raised }

+ \line { Sir Arthur Sullivan }
+ }
+}
+\markup {
+ \fill-line { 1885 }
+}
+@end lilypond
+
+Long text indications can also be automatically wrapped
+accordingly to the given line width. These will be
+either left-aligned or justified, as shown in
+the following example.
+
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim]
