David and Andrew- Thank you for the reminders. Usually my coding barely scratches the surface of Lilypond’s capabilities, so the fact that the result appeared correct was my motivation for submitting the “solution.” I realize that unorthodox coding could produce unexpected results with future versions of Lilypond. Again, thank you for your comments. There is much to learn! Stan
