Done this with a small bash-script, so I would know if something did not go well after a change, like adapting slurs, (de-)cerscendo's and the like.
Lilpond-book is just one step further to get a complete book of all the different pieces, for the final check-up/correction/rework by the director of our church-choir. I will take some time this evening to test wether the break is in SwatijBozje06.ly or if it is an example that lilypond-book needs a rewrite, that is that each file is closed after it is completed, thus leaving enough file-handles / memory free for lilypond, and in the end the generation is done in a sequential reading of all files necessarry to generate the book. However I am not a perl-scripter, bash/ksh is my style augmented with awk/sed and the other unix/linux-utilities there are. Maybe it is just the fact that I am writing for two choirs; one church-choir and one choir/orchestra/dancegroup with russian, oekrainian, and white-russian folkmusic; with lots of pieces which belong to each other, which I will combine into one book for each choir, and a set for the director for the Liturgy and the performances we give during the year. -- Herman Grootaers _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
