Yes, though I'd say Ian has a point, too. I use the midi initially to
'proofread', but finally I generate the complete piece with repeats
unfold. Should I make some corrections, I'd like to hear it without
repeats, and so on.

This snippet allows a command line option unfold-repeats to control
this behaviour:

  maybeUnfoldRepeats =
  #(define-music-function (parser location music) (ly:music?)
    (if (ly:get-option 'unfold-repeats)
         #{ \unfoldRepeats $music #}
         #{ $music #}))

  \score {
    \maybeUnfoldRepeats \allMusic
    \midi { }
  }

Using "lilypond -d unfold-repeats ..." will now generate midi with
unfolded repeats.

Now, if we could only get rid of the warning "no such internal
option: unfold-repeats"...

Hmm... I may have a cunning plan. Write some wrapper functions \setMidiRepeats to take a boolean flag and save this in an internal Scheme variable, say unfoldmidirepeats. Your function then tests (if Reinhold does this sort of thing in orchestrallily, so I should be able to steal from the best . . . )
This sort of thing,
\setMidiRepeats = #(define-music-function parser location unfoldmidirepeats music) (boolean? ly:music?)
if(unfoldmidirepeats)
 #{ \unfoldRepeats $music}
 #{ $music }
}
)
I'll probably need some extra Scheme functions to set the unfoldmidirepeats variable to initial values and a known state but you've given me something to work with.

Dankie en groetjes,

Ian
