Traditional tunes tend to be short. Just a burst of eight bars, repeated usually and then a burst of another eight bars again repeated.
I would like to play the tune a number of times 1,2,3 perhaps 4 times. I could go: timidity my.tune timidity my.tune timidity my.tune but is no good as there is a delay between tunes. How can I tell Lilypond to put out the tune (ie the notes) n times, where n is taken from the command line ? I would like to have my tunes stand alone, so I can edit them an play them individually. But I would also like to "suck" the essential parts of these same tunes into a book for sharing or perhaps publications. I don't mind writing some perl code to do this, but I need to know the essential parts to suck in. Thanks a lot.
