Thank you, Laura!  I hadn't even gotten to the bar numbers problem yet =)

I have incipits in a lot of my editions.  For years I struggled to put
them into the same score as the part they went with, and then
struggled again to update them when I the lilypond version changed.
Now I have a separate lilypond file (cantus-incipit.ly is the incipit
for cantus.ly) and so I don't need to deal with printing new clefs and
key signatures and making the bar numbers come out right.  

You can see examples of what I do in any of my Dowland pieces:

Incipit in Modern Editions

[Aaron Dalton]

I'm doing a modern edition of some 16th-century madrigals and the format
requires that each staff have the original clef, mensuration, and first
few notes in a little incipit before the modern transcription.  I see
that Lilypond has all the glyphs I need, but I'm unsure how to go about
adding this incipit.  Is it even possible?

Thanks for your time.
