is it possible to specify an output directory from within the LilyPond

How about \bookOutputName? This works with absolute paths like

   \bookOutputName "/home/malte/foo" (output to /home/malte/foo.pdf)

and with relative paths too. You don’t need an explicit \book {} block.
I would love to use this solution, but it means that you also have to define the actual name of the *file* in addition to the directory. Is there a way to derive the filename from the title and use that? I found that using

  \bookOutputName \concat { "/home/foo/" \fromproperty #'header:title }

does not work...

Thanks for any pointers.

Regards, Patrick
