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?

Alain
