Hi Hanno, Unfortunately I don't know of a way to do this. It seems that
the title is processed before any key engravers are called, so there is no
way to access what key you've set in the music when the title is generated.
I think your best option is to figure out how to remember to change the key
indication manually.
Below is a revision of my code so that it just assembles the key name as a
string and assigns it to the variable "key-name" (and prints this to the log
so you can see that that part works). The key in the title has already been
generated so it is not changed. (I also cleaned the code up a bit, using
case instead of cond, getting rid of set!, etc.).
