 playground/book.tex:

 playground/lpb-file.lytex:
 \lilypondfile{music.ly}

 ... why?  Just not stick
 \lilypnodfile{out/music.ly

 in your main book.tex?  That's what I do.  Call it book.lytex, run it 
 through lilypond-book, then run the generated .tex through texinfo.  Or 
 pdflatex.

I'll look into that, but I think -- to the extent that I'm able to, at
these hours -- that the answer is that in real life, the included file
does not just contain the ly-file, but is a full chapter of its own,
so it needs to be kept in a separate file altogether. I think... 
This example was just to make it as minimal as possible. So while your
solution is certainly a workaround which works to some extent, it also
shows that the output=out thing has its limits.
But thanks for your input (or should that be include...? :-)

 Now, is this how it's supposed to be, or is there a way to work around
 this? As I said, I'm happy to keep all the output files in the main
 folder -- now it's become almost a matter of principle: I want to find
 out if I've overlooked something...

 This is related to a current bug (or enhancement request) about \includes 
 in pure lilypond files.  All the filenames are relative to the first file 
 called, not the first file.  Err, the bug summary has a better summary 
 than this.

I understand. I hope it will be fixed.

Lilypond-book -- almost there...

[Eyolf Østrem]

I've been struggling to get lilypond-book do what I want it to do, and 
I think I'm almost there. Now, I have working output, my question is
if there is a better way to work to get there.

I want to include files with lp-examples in chapters that I \include
in a main LaTeX document, fullbook.tex, something like this:

\documentclass[a4paper]{memoir}
\begin{document}
\include{ch1}
\include{ch2}
\include{lp-examples}
\end{document}

How I finally made it work, was to have a file lp-examples.lytex
containing sth like the following:


\chapter{appendix} 

\section{1 Gioia et amore}

This is a song.

\lilypondfile{graphics/01-gioia-et-amore.ly}


which I first process through lilypond-book. This gives a file
lp-examples.tex, which is then processed nicely when I do latex
fullbook.

1. Is this the recommended way to work?
2. Is there a way to automatize the process? E.g. in Kile, vim, or
-- god forbid -- emacs/auctex?

You can obtain a reasonable degree of automation using the 'make'
utility. Search for Marcus Brinkmann, (marcus dot brinkmann at rub dot
de) for a nice example of how to use it on a complete book (Slave
Songs of the United States, 1867)
