I feel the need to try again. Some of this is almost clear. :-) Tab is fingering. There are different types of fingering: 1. Actual finger indication, 0-4 for strings, 1-5 for keyboard. Not part of tablature, notation only. 2. String indication. Digit or lettercap inside a ring. Do re

tagline and copyright headers in a one-page piece

Is there any way to display both a \header{tagline} and \header{copyright} when the music is only one page? Currently LilyPond treats a one-page piece as being just the last page (so it displays the tagline but not copyright). I tried looking at share/lilypond/tex/source/titledefs.tex , but I do
