excuse me, just a trivial question, but I cannot seem to find the
answer.
I want to add the date variable to one element of text in my title.
I have this in the preamble
date = #(strftime "%d-%m-%Y" (localtime (current-time)))
What I want to do is somehow add/concatenate this to a text string
for the name of person doing the arranging, which appears in the
header block, i.e.
arranger = "Arr. Maestro Smithington-Smythe"
How do I do this so I finally see
Arr. Maestro Smithington-Smythe, 17/May/2013
Something like this:
date = #(strftime "%d-%m-%Y" (localtime (current-time)))
Arranger = "Arr. Maestro Smithington-Smythe"
\header {
composer = "Composer"
title = "Title"
arranger = \markup { \Arranger \date }
}
While working on something I use this (included from a global file):
% Define a variable to hold the formatted date:
date = #(strftime "%d-%m-%Y" (localtime (current-time)))
% Miscellaneous:
thisisme = \markup{ \concat { "Engraved by *me*" \bold \date " with"
\with-url #"http://lilypond.org/" "LilyPond " \simple #(lilypond-
version) " (http://lilypond.org/)." } }
Below this include in the project-file, I have:
% Fix the date when I finished this:
%date = "27-04-2013"
And when I finish the project I fill in the real date, uncomment it,
ready.
Regards,
*me*.
