I guess that's what sly is, and although I never stated it that way, I probably should have. http://www.openguitar.com The field separator is a space and a "|". It's not elegant at all, and the filter has to be redone, but it works. How could it not? It's basically a few lines of gawk. There are serious other advantages to having separate files for the notes and the formatting. Matrix transposition and prettifying scripts are already done. I also have a very simple script to read \includes into the .ly file, for sending bug reports or sharing(?). It is a bit less cumbersome when using lilypond-book for a number of short works in four parts, for example, to proceed in that way. DaveA -- ...New occasions teach new duties; Time makes ancient good uncouth; They must upward still, and onward, who would keep abreast of truth; Lo, before us gleam her camp-fires! we ourselves must Pilgrims be; Launch our Mayflower, and steer boldly through the desperate winter sea; Nor attempt the Future's portal with the Past's blood-rusted key. ---James Russell Lowell: "The Present Crisis" 1844.
