This sounds like it might be more promising, at least for the scores I
write myself. When borrowing source from other people, however, the
appropriate Scheme variables won't be there. I was hoping for something
that was a little more "plug-n-play" and thought the `--init` option
might allow me to drop in borrowed material without having to modify it.
As I think some more about it, this may be more possible than I thought.
It looks like everything in lilypond-book-preamble.ly is a scheme
expression (except for the `\version` statement) as is
`#(set-global-staff-size 11)`. That covers most of what I need to
change (so far at least) on a project by project basis. The only other
thing is a `\paper` block (it's setting line-width and indent). Is
there a way to set a top level `\paper` block entirely within Scheme?
