I'm still rather busy, (shameless plug) the VU-orchestra is playing in
the concertgebouw next sunday afternoon, so don't hold your breath for
command line tags, but you can fake things by doing
\include "mypaper.ly"
#(set-paper-size VAR_PAPER_SIZE)
and do
#(define VAR_PAPER_SIZE "a4")
in mypaper.ly
You could write mypaper.ly for different sizes using a Makefile or
something similar.
