        Thanks, worked like a charm!

        Understood.

        Oh, I don't mind using CVS. It saves a bit of time when updating
        as
        opposed to downloading the entire thing again.  I just want to
        be sure
        I've got the right commands/options when updating.

        Well, I just got the CVS version compiled and ran it on a test
        file.  As
        you have found, it is necessary to add the numbers "manually". 
        This is
        fine by me as I need to put the number of the measures rest
        below the
        staff anyway (how do I set this globally for a piece?) or it
        looks silly
        with the numbers *and* the markings above.  I'll have to figure
        out the
        font normally used for measures rest.
        
        For example:
        
        \score{
        
        \notes{ \property Score.skipBars = ##t
        
        R1*11&\markup {\italic "some text"}_"10"
                }
        }
        
        Is almost what I want.  The only thing I have to change is the
        font for
        the "10"
