Thanks. But that's what I'm doing *now. I'm trying to save lots of time by obviating the need for it. Perhaps I didn't make that part clear enough. Right now I have a list of predefined barlines, one of which is Z = \bar""\break and I stick that particular one wherever I want the break.
That's not _quite_ the same as what I suggested; if you drop the \break part and put a \Z everywhere that you could _live_ with a break, it might work better.
