⌂ Defining a Custom Staff Context

Instead of having to type the same customization commands every time you need to use a particular type of staff, you can define a custom staff context and use it instead. For example, instead of:

\new Staff \with { ... }

You would use:

\new MyCustomStaff

A custom staff context can have any customizations that you would use in a Staff's \with block. Note that the custom staff's definition can be saved in a file that you \include, so you do not have to re-create it every time it is needed.
