Manipulating LilyPond files is not trivial, and your description is not at all useful for figuring out what "remove some parts" is even remotely supposed to mean. You might want to do your removal operation while still in MusicXML using some standard XML manipulation tool, and only then convert to LilyPond. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
