Thank you Carl. Interesting example. For the hymns I do, that might work for the first couple bars, but then I'll have to predict where the linebreak will be and revert it at that point. I'm using a template system to auto-generate the lilypond code, so having to insert a counter-acting command at an unpredictable spot in the lyrics will be rather annoying.
Are there any Lilypond developers still active on the list who might be interested in doing a sponsored modification that would allow two staves to be pasted together within a score. Alternatively, allowing two scores to be pasted together on the same line, since scores already follow one another sequentially inside a book?
