Wow, thanks, I hadn’t thought of that at all! There’s always something more to 
learn! :)

Yeah, but that is intentional. I didn’t want tunes split over page breaks 
(except the tunes that are too long to fit in one page). Actually that was the 
main reason for not using lilypond-book: I wanted more fine-grained control 
over vertical spacing, and I found that much easier to achieve when lilypond 
takes care of the whole typesetting process.
