After some tweaking I've found that in 2.1.28:
- to add line breaks between fragments, I just add 2 empty lines in
input file,

- to avoid some latex-processing errors, all I had to do was to replace
the old "11pt" option in \begin[11pt]{lilypond} with "staffwidth=11".
This is quite weird, because now also my national characters print well
and I don't see how this can be connected.

- to get a natural fragment width, I have to use
\begin[raggedright]{lilypond} or drop out \score{ }. 
However, longer fragments are not splitted in several lines automaticaly
anymore (as in 2.0.1) unless I specify "linewidth=160". How can I fix
this?
Also, how can I force lilypond (2.1.28) to use page width as linewidth
with shorter fragments without specifying the exact width? 

- Regarding documentation: I think there is a mistake in the manual
(v2.1) at "6.4. Music fragment options".
Lilypond-book fails to process the file if I use "indent=\\10mm" (as in
example) or "indent=10\\mm" (as in explanation) option, while
"indent=10" goes through, making indent of 10mm. Also, I dont really
understand what "fragment/nofragment" options are used for. I can't
notice any change using either or none.

- For the next version of lilypond-book, I would also suggest some other
fragment options like "nobars", "nobarnumbers", "no key" or "plain" (no
time, key and barlines).

Bostjan.
