It was meant as "if _one_ insists on that kind of organization" (rather than _you_) and referred to you trying to give a version matching the original spirit which constituted the frame of reference or insistence. Basically, I saw you as trying to accommodate an assumed insistence rather than being insistant yourself. I just don't think that this manner of writing warrants accommodation: there just are too many cases where it will get strained to the point of falling apart. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
