3.8.6 Measure repeats

In the percent style, a note pattern can be repeated. It is printed once, and then the pattern is replaced with a special sign. Patterns of a one and two measures are replaced by percent-like signs, patterns that divide the measure length are replaced by slashes

     \context Voice { \repeat  "percent" 4  { c'4 }
       \repeat "percent" 2 { c'2 es'2 f'4 fis'4 g'4 c''4 }
     }
