For instance this page: https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Page:Childs_own_music_book.djvu/52 When you click "edit" becomes: https://en.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Page:Childs_own_music_book.djvu/52&action=edit And there you can write the lilypond code wrapped with <score> and </score> > > Then I'd repeat my suggestion.

I thought that maybe we could use comments to signal the different parts to a script to generat the "flat" version, but then I realized that there are many special cases, like "add lyrics" and I am unsure about how well it would play with Lilypond structure... It seems like forcing the sw to do something it is not prepared to.. About pre-parsing the variables before calling lilypond, I will have to ask the developer who wrote the extension to see if it is possible with the current pipeline. Cheers, Micru
