I wish the word "snippet" were available to
denote the above. But Snippet is now a
well-established term in the copious Lilypond
documentation. So I had to say "extract".

<G> Not the above excerpt, for sure. But the
part from which this is taken compiles fine;
I've printed out the resulting .pdf and friends
here in Silver Spring and in Los Angeles have
played them.

<G> No I wouldn't. I'll bet almost all Lilypond users
have heard of Bach, but why should readers without
special needs or interest have Bach Dover scores? But I
would expect tho folks who do have such scores to easily
recognize my problem from the "extract" that I gave, and
reproduce above. It is a notation that I've seen often
elsewhere, but at the moment I can cite only the Bach
Gesellschaft editions.

I am Attaching a .jpg of a small chunk of a download that
I got from IMSLP, that illustrates the Bach Gesellschaft
practice. I am fairly sure that the Mailman SW will
strip this Attachment, but I hope it will go through to
Messrs K and S. If anyone else here is interested,
lemme know; and I'll be glad to send this small .jpg.
Again thanks, and I hope for illumination from any/all available
experts.
Alan
