This should probably become a FAQ. You need to split each cue into two files: foo_music.ly contains the actual music (staves, notes, phrasing, etc.) and variable definitions (e.g., fooTitle = "Foo"), while foo.ly has \include foo_music.ly and the headers with things like title=\fooTitle). Then, in your complete score, you \include all of the *_music.ly files with appropriate headers for the full score. ~Chris -- Chris Maden, text nerd <URL: http://crism.maden.org/ > “Always remember where you came from, and honor your ancestry, But don’t be afraid to defy anyone who would tell you what to be.” — Chris Vaughan, “Freedom” GnuPG fingerprint: DB08 CF6C 2583 7F55 3BE9 A210 4A51 DBAC 5C5C 3D5E _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
