If I understand correctly, this is to make it possible to insert
text between the different movements (as is the purpose of \book).
Right?
The purpose of using lilypond-book here is just to stick multiple
scores together, with page numbering.
Could you please remind me and others on why you could not simply do it
all within a .ly file:
\version "2.6.0"
\paper{
% For version 2.6:
scoreTitleMarkup = \bookTitleMarkup
% For version 2.7:
printallheaders = ##t
}
\include "piece1.ly"
\include "piece2.ly"
...
Now I remember one problem, namely that you have to move all \header{...}
blocks into the corresponding \score{...} block, otherwise all the
pieces will
get the same title. But are there any other problems that you solve
easier with
lilypond-book?
--- 1allegro/score.ly
According to Han-Wen's remark, with or without \book here, the
result should be the same.
Not if you're using lilypond-book. If you don't use \book, then you
can't use \pageBreak in your scores. There used to be a bug (in Aug)
wherein the horizontal alignment of some systems was also messed up
without \book; I'm not certain if that's still around.
That's a rather special issue and should be described in the lilypond-book
manual. I still find the information about \book in the main manual very
misleading, both in "8.1.4 Text markup", "10.1.12 Multiple movements"
and "5.8 File structure". If you agree, I can try to reformulate it.
