"ground the program to a halt" is not really the kind of information from which one can deduce what went wrong. Neither is "Putting the additional materials in the layout" as there is a large variety of possibilities of doing that. > So I am living as it's not the biggest deal for the exercise- it was > just that I was surprised that the \remove for bar number should not > work in the same place as the other removes Why shouldn't it? > AND that it didn't work anywhere else in a score that otherwise > compiled and looked good enough. > > As for your example- I don't do that level of tweaking, in fact I > change stem directions and that's about it. In that case it is rather surprising that you state your files all stop running on newer versions after running convert-ly. Perhaps you are doing something quite different from the way it is intended to be done, and in that case showing your problem in more detail might help both developers to maintain better compatibility as well as you to avoid ways of doing things that make it harder for you to upgrade later on. > Also I'm probably way overstating my familiarity with 2.14 as the > documents have changed so radically that unless something doesn't work > for me I don't look it up to read more.

As a music teacher, you are probably familiar with pupils claiming their self-developed technique to be happily working, coming to you for the final polishing of said technique. Your compatibility problems are not going to become easier in future, so a cursory scan of what you are doing, just to see where you can do a lot better with comparatively little effort, might be a good investment.
