This means that a lilypond file would have no formatting in it at all. A seperate style sheet would be the place for this. The advantage is that if you have style tweaks for multiple docs only one file is needed to apply these tweaks to all files. This might require the addition of attributes to permit lower level styles in and external file... 2. A fixed and clearly defined structure which takes into account the possible structural pieces that different scores can contain. \piece \movement \phrase \motiv \chorus etc. This I know is a fundamental change in the structure of lilypond and possibly(probably) hard to impose on the already existing structure. Truthfully \score etc doesn't say much about the structure of a composition but are rather containers for data types to be parsed. This thread was started to understand and I hope document the file structure. I would like to see actually a diagram of how and in what order each block ("container of data") is parsed in lilypond as well as what block is processed first second etc. Aaron ( __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
