Hi Knute, I'm pretty sure LilyPond treats them both the same. As I understand it using .ly or .ily is just a way to help us humans keep track of which files are meant to be included and which are not.

See: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/including-lilypond-files "Files in the current working directory may be referenced by specifying just the file name after the \include command. Files in other locations may be included by giving either a full path reference or a relative path reference" HTH, -Paul -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Pull-in-external-LilyPond-files-into-a-score-of-movements-tp161839p161845.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
