Silly me, the code was plain wrong. Here is a fixed version.

That works beautifully in my test file, thanks a lot! I’ll test it more tomorrow in my actual project and let you know if any issues come up.

Okay, so in my actual project I have a file that takes care of my layout block. If I copy your code into that file and consist the Multi_mark_engraver, it works. But if I create a separate file with your code instead and include it in that layout file, where I consist the engraver, no rehearsal marks get printed and I get these errors:

warning: unknown translator: `Multi_mark_engraver'

This is the file structure:

includes/PeteCrighton/layout.ily (where my layout block lives)

includes/PeteCrighton/tools/enhanced-multi-mark.ily (your code minus the layout block which I included in the above file)

And at the top of layout.ily:

\include "tools/enhanced-multi-mark.ily" (with includes/PeteCrighton being included with the -I command line option)
