Dear Mr. MacMillan,

To start with, thank you very much for your kind, helpful, and immediate
reply. It has taken me a while to respond because I was initially daunted
by the whole process of obtaining the package. I kept running into
difficulties, probably due to my relative ineptitude with computers, so I
ended up just downloading the package.ly file and the frame-engraver-test.ly
file.

Unfortunately, however, the engraver does not seem to be working. The test
file is compiling successfully, but I am getting the following warning
messages:

warning: cannot find property type-check for `extender-length'
(backend-type?).  perhaps a typing error?
warning: skipping assignment
warning: cannot find property type-check for `left-extra-padding'
(backend-type?).  perhaps a typing error?
warning: skipping assignment
warning: cannot find property type-check for `right-extra-padding'
(backend-type?).  perhaps a typing error?
warning: skipping assignment
warning: cannot find property type-check for `extender-length'
(backend-type?).  perhaps a typing error?
warning: skipping assignment
warning: cannot find property type-check for `extender-length'
(backend-type?).  perhaps a typing error?
warning: skipping assignment
warning: You didn't finish final extender.  Completing...

The first two extenders are not showing up, and I cannot figure out how to
make the strange brackets on top of the boxes go away.

Any help, again, is greatly appreciated! I wish I knew more Scheme so I
could try and fix the problem myself.

All the best,

Rowan
