Hi Phil, I was here:
https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.20/Documentation/notation/multiple-voices#automatic-part-combining I see now in the URL that the version is 2.20, but this is where Google sent me when I searched for "Lilypond partcombine" (without the quotation marks). Should I always check to see where I end up, or was this a cached page, or will it perhaps be taken down at some point? Brent.
