Automatic narrowing in Emacs?

This may be slightly off-topic, but it concerns a problem I have encountered in Emacs when editing Lilypond files and at no other time. I always use Emacs for creating and editing my Lilypond files. Some of these get quite large. When editing a very long file (typically over 2,000 lines) I have

Hi All, I now remember it was exactly this issue some time ago that caused me to stop using lilypond-mode. The narrowing does not get undone properly. My emacs-lisp coding is not up to fixing it. Is there anyone that could have a go at it? Andrew ___
