It means you don't have all the required dependencies installed. Beginning with guile-1.8, plus all the others in the error message. The way forward is to install each of them. I'm my experience it was quite a puzzle to find all the right package names. It took al lot of googling. Unfortunate

Apologies. I have no idea why, but this afternoon my code appeared to have no effect on the spacing; this evening it works. Yet I haven't changed a thing. Clearly something changed, but I have no idea what. At least my original thought that "this ought to work" was correct! David -Origina

In string parts, I often use more than one stave where a section is divisi. I write, for instance, \set Staff.shortInstrumentName = "2." when one player (or sub-section) is required, or \set Staff.shortInstrumentName = \markup \column { "3." "4." } if two players need to play this line. The d
