Unlikely. You can call LilyPond with -dverbose and let it bomb out in the function to see the backtrace for yourself (just call some non-existent function or something). I doubt that there is a name in there somewhere. If it is, you can likely get at it via Scheme. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
