Federico,
Put the \include "english.ly" call in your top-level file instead (see
below)
Hi Ian,
I've tried that, but this way I get another error concerning variables
(all my included files - the real ones, not the examples posted here -
have two variables).
This is a tiny example of the structure of my included files (in this
case I would get the error "unknown escaped string \music"):
\version "2.13.3"
\header {
title= "Score 1"
}
music= { c d e f }
\score {
\new Staff { \music }
}

Hi Jan,
thanks for your reply.
Actually, I had tried \bookpart (see the 1st example below, in my first
email) but I have problems with \include.
If in the included files there's an \include (even a simple include
"english.ly"), it can't compile.
I attach a tiny example, where book-test.ly includes file1.ly and file2.ly.
It works just if you comment out the \include lines in file1.ly and
file2.ly.
Why?
I've checked this page:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/user/lilypond/Including-LilyPond-files#Including-LilyPond-files
All the files I want to include are in
~/lilypond/usr/share/lilypond/current/ly
so it's not a matter of path

Hello Frederico,
you can use \bookpart :
\book {
\bookpart{
\tocItem ...
\header {
title = ...
}
}
\bookpart{
\tocItem ...
\header {
title = ...
}
}
}
If you surround every piece with a bookpart-statement, you dont need
to pagebreak.
My mobile INet-Connection is quite slow right now, so you have to
google to find the right page in the docs.
Or someone else has a pointer ;)
I hope it helps!

I'm trying to compile a number of scores in a book using just
LilyPond (I've tried lilypond-book before, but I had some trouble
with layout and as I'm not confident with LaTeX I dropped it).
I need a help to start in the right way.
What I want to print:
* table of content
* scores (let's say 2 scores, as example)
Each score should have the title printed at the beginning.
Page numbers should start from the first score, not from the toc
page: so from page 2 and not page 1 of the output.
In order to get a title for each piece, I guess I need to use \bookpart.
I tried the code below, but I get some weird error messages..
Probably, there's something wrong with the way I've included the
files in \bookpart
Any suggestion?
Thanks,
Federico
