Sly is for big projects. Make your .ly files and then enter all the notes at once for each section: brass, strings, etc., in a .sly file in this format: part1 | part2 | part3 | etc. part1 | part2 | part3 | etc. part1 | part2 | part3 | etc. part1 | part2 | part3 | etc. part1 | part2 | part3 | etc. part1 | part2 | part3 | etc. part1 | part2 | part3 | etc. $ sly filename brass creates brass-pt1.ly, brass-pt2.ly, etc. from filename.sly Use \include to put them in your scores. It is probably most convenient to put a measure of each part on each line. When done, you might write some or all of the parts into the score with lyinclude so that you have everything in one huge file. I don't know whether there is any advantage to the fact that the parts are already extracted. One of the parts could be a dummy with measure numbers in it. If you don't \include it, lilypond will never see it. daveA -- Why should any country entrust its young people to the leadership of the same geniuses who *invaded the wrong country*? Answer: Money.
