Hi Cameron,
Yeah... \context is okay, I guess, but surely my way of doing
this---using \set short.InstrumentName in the appropriate \staff block
is the more idiomatic way to go. That way the definition is
*completely* removed from the content. It just seems more LilyPondish.
Agreed!
I always try to set instrument name(s) in the \score block (or a
subcontext) instead of the content — I probably should have started
by suggesting that to Chip.
The only place where this approach doesn't work well is with
instrument switches, which are still unnecessarily complex and error-
prone in Lilypond.
Cheers,
Kieren.
