Grob Scheme functions

Grob properties can be manipulated from Scheme. In practice, most manipulations are coded in C++ because of tradition.

ly-get-grob-property g sym Function
Get the value of a value in grob g of property sym. It will return '() (end-of-list) if g doesn't have sym set.

ly-set-grob-property g sym val Function
Set sym in grob g to value val

ly-get-spanner-bound spanner dir Function
Get one of the bounds of spanner. dir may be -1 for left, and 1 for right.

ly-grob? g Function
Typecheck: is g a grob?
