Thank you.  But how does one use it?  There seems to be no  
documentation and it's not clear from the posts whether it has been  
included into LilyPond.

These functions are not included in LilyPond, but as an example of how 
to use it, there are minimal
patterns ( one called  \pattern, another \melodie and  so on). So you 
have to paste everything below
Enjoy upto the mail adress at the bottom into a file and change it to 
your needs.

Ah.  Can that be done using \include?

Yes, of course. I have pasted the lines needed into a file  
transpose.ly which you should keep in the
same directory as the files that need it. If you write an \include  
transpose.ly in your file,

the two functions \modeTranspose and \diatonicTranspose are available.
But to be honest, I don't know how they work nor exactly what they do.



Thank you!  I will use the empirical approach to see what happens.

Take a look at this threads, there are several slightly different versions of

 Betreff: Creating harmonized lines

 Is LilyPond capable of generating harmonized lines of notes?  For  
 example, say I have:
 
 \key g \major
 \melody { c8 d8 e8 fis8 g1 }
 
 for one instrument and I want a second instrument to play a  
 harmonized line a third up from that (e.g., { e8 fis8 g8 a8 b1 } ),  
 is there a command for LilyPond to do this?  Using \transpose c e   
 would apply a major third interval to all the notes, resulting in the  
 harmony line not being within the key of G.
 
 I can of course just do this by hand, but I was looking for the  
 automagical way if it exists.  I have not been able to find anything  
 in the documentation, the mailing list archives (other than a  
 discussion about how \transpose does not do diatonic transposition)  
 or the snippet repository that would point to this capability.  Maybe  
 I should just stop being lazy...
