Re: using & in title

[Thorkil Wolvendans]

Hi Jean-Marc,
The problem you face here, is due to the fact that lily doesn't print the 
text, but let's LaTeX do the printing. The '&' symbol is a reserved symbol, 
which means that it has a special function in LaTex. To get the '&' symbol 
printed one has to place a \ right before the '&' symbol.
Thus, the corrected header should look like this:

\header {piece="Les Galans \& les Dames"}

And now everything works as intended! :D
