Very interesting! Doing the system stretch in a single pass would be really cool. I didn't know there was such a thing like an estimated extent. Might you point me to the part of the code where this may be done? If there is no objection, I'll commit the two pass stuff anyway, as it will eventually used by a few people (that is, at least two :). But then working on the one pass spacing would be something valuable. nicolas _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
