On a long file, LilyPond-mode keeps spuriously narrowing. I tracked this
down to line 502 of lilypond-indent.el: the paren-matching code calls
narrow-to-region, but never calls widen again.

the moment) isn't up to working ou

I just persuaded LilyPond to produce an extra blank page at the end of the

bottom of the previous page.

private email if that's useful.

Doing what Jan suggested, at least in the RPM, seems to be a good way of
sorting things out, at least for RPM-ed systems. After all, it's
reasonable to have only one version of lilypond installed as an RPM.

OK, so maybe that should go in the manual.

The manual says that \paper{} is required and several examples have an
empty \paper{}, but this doesn't seem (from experience) to be true in
2.1.25 any more. Is this the manual being out of date, or LilyPond being
over-lenient?

Sadly I don't have to do that. RedHat in their infinite wisdom run the

It will and it does! That's the whole point of the patch. When my code

Lilypond path is in it, and only adds it if
