Thanks, if I had one iota of knowledge about scheme I might do that, but I think I'll give in to Mats original advice and find a text-based solution with some 3rd party pre-processor to generate the lp source code with replacement tokens. I'm more comfortable with leaving the base lilypond installation alone, and just putting a "helper application" in front of it.
