Thank you very much. It's close, but will need a little tweaking. Your
example is right-justified against the left margin, whereas I want it
starting at the left margin, and pushing the staff to the right
(actually, I think that was your \halign, removing that moves it
partially (but not enough) to the right so I'll have to play).
The other glitch is the inter-score spacing seems to be slightly larger
than the intersystem spacing - I'm trying to tell by eye and it's
difficult to be sure - but if it's hard to tell then I should be able to
live with it :-) So now I know this approach should work without too
much difficulty.
It sounds like shortInstrumentName might work even better from my point
of view, but my first attempts in that direction have not been
promising. I think I know what I'm doing wrong, though.
Thanks again
Wol
