Thanks for this very quick answer. I seem to have a problem here, maybe because I'm running lilypond 2.10.10? /home/brenzi/svn_local/lilypond-songs/test.ly:8:21: Fehler: GUILE signalisierte einen Fehler für den hier beginnenden Ausdruck oddFooterMarkup = # (ly:format "Compiled ~a by ~a (~a)" Unbound variable: ly:format sorry for the german error msg ;-) does this only work with lily 2.11?
