I think the concatenation happens in parser.yy:847. Rather than creating a new paper block every time \paper is seen, we just make a clone of the most recent \paper block and start appending stuff to it. I don't think there's a way (in the parser, at least) to tell when we've finished dealing with all the paper blocks. Perhaps you'll need to normalize the paper block a bit later on (like Book::process).
There remains another issue with bookparts: Consider a file like \book { \bookpart { \paper { left-margin = 20 \mm right-margin = 40 \mm } music... } \bookpart { \paper { left-margin = 30 \mm right-margin = 30 \mm } more music... } \bookpart { ... }There's no top-level paper block, so default-paper will only contain what's stored in paper-defaults-init.ly. The ps output engine in framework-ps.scm:92, however, looks for a >global< line-width. Currently, this line-width is just the default line-width calculated in paper.scm (set-paper-dimensions) or, you can also do:
\paper {line-width = 14232 \mm % Today I want to wallpaper my room with sheet music
} \book { \bookpart { \paper { ...This value will be written in the output ps file, but seems to have no effect.
To sum up: What's the intention of this line-width value in ps output files? Cheers, Michael
