What I don't understand is why I need both the 8th-note and 16th-note
entries. The name "beamExceptions" implies that one only needs to
specify the exceptional beaming - but the 16th note version is already
the default. Is it the case that if /any/ exception is described,
then one has to de

I am setting a piece in 2/4 time. Lilypond's default beaming pattern
is to break beams at the mid-bar point, which is what one would
generally expect. However, I would like it to use a single beam for
the whole bar if, and only if, the bar consists of 4 quavers/half-

Of course I can easil
