Impressive, Kieren. Looks like your "Autumn of LilyPond" will
leave us with another clever schemer! One suggestion, though. Make
a good example for the newbies... format and indent your code as
clearly as you can. Over e-mail (and especially with multiple
reply "> " columns), long lines get chopped up quickly and become
even harder to read. You can see this already in the reply block
above. And even without reply columns, some e-mail clients wrap to
a thinner width than you might expect, and then single-line
comments get split and cause headaches. For e-mail, I try to keep
lines 66 characters max. In the source code, I do 72. And avoid
tabs in e-mail, they come out weird in the gnu archives:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2009-06/msg00210.html
I made some small changes to your code, just as an example. I
removed redundant curly braces, pulled lone left "{" braces up one
line, and used two \split commands to maintain the "one measure
per line of code" guideline.
I don't mean to pick on you, but I've seen enough examples of
problems caused by formatting, and I know that even a little
carelessness can cause big confusion.
Nice macro, though!
