Hello all, I am just now learning how to use labels and \page-ref to retrieve the page number where a label is located. I would like to use the value returned by \page-ref to do simple math in Scheme. I am able to pass the label to a markup command, but I can't figure out how to get it into a

Including input files via command line

Is there a way to compile multiple input files into one output file via the command line? Currently I am using \include, but I would like to be able to choose the included file on the fly without editing the main file. Another thought I had was maybe there is a way to pass a value to the .ly

Vertical spacing between wordwrap items within markup column

2023-04-12 Thread Benjamin Bruce
Maybe I'm missing something here, but how can I make the space between items in a markup column regular? As you can see in the example, if the text is short so that there is no wrapping necessary, the space is fine. But the "a a a" item does wrap around and overlaps a bit with the "b b b" item

Thanks for digging into this for me. Yes, both cases are necessary for typesetting shape note hymns, as illustrated by the attached scan. I believe the rule for this is that the notehead should be pointed up in the treble clef, and down in the bass clef. Ipan ne 18 tonal tlen metstli 08 tlen
