An idea for a systematic development of a large score.

A bit of my LP background - - - Several years ago I was asked by a local church-choir director to prepare a couple of pieces for use by other church-groups. He knew that I had used computers for preparing teaching and publication graphics of one sort or another, and that I had done a little mu

Well.. i may still think in a way to get that compatibility.

Ok, I took a look at your examples, thanks. I see what you're after now, basically *automatic* instead of manual handling of: 1. external ledgers (dashed ledgers work like extending the staff) 2. internal ledgers (some notes get two, some get one) You might be able to get this by writing a schem

Turning off obnoxious coda behavior

LilyPond automatically moves the coda glyph \mark \markup { \musicglyph #"scripts.coda" } to the beginning of the next line, if it is put at the end of a line with a manual \break. This is highly annoying. How does one stop it from happening?
