The hack I'm using is to link all the lilypond files into one directory. I have a script that changes the names to include some unique string, usually the directory name.

I'm using: A hack to get the margins to correctly line up with the headers. A hack to get the included files to cause recompilation The above mentioned hack to allow input files in multiple directories. I think it's worth it to avoid using the hacks which will undoubtedly change next month that people are adding to let lilypond do some of the work of a real publishing program. I don't expect anyone whose experience of open-source software is limited to lilypond to believe this, but I do have LaTeX files from almost 20 years ago that still work. -- Laura (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] , http://www.laymusic.org/ ) (617) 661-8097 fax: (501) 641-5011 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139 _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
