If you move the discussion to another list, how do the rest of us benefit
from the discussion?

Thank you for asking; of course if we come up with anything
interesting on the French list, I'll translate it here, modify the
documentation or add it to the LSR. This is how things work.

I've been having the same problem trying to put multiple hymns in a single
file with the priest's prayers before and after each hymn. LilyPond handles
music great, but plain text is a pain. I had given up and started pasting
the music into a Word document as pictures.

I have to confess I haven't quite understood what is this topic about;
I use \book a lot and have never encountered any problem with text
indications; the \markup command works perfectly, with simple
functions such as \fill-line etc.

For example, I often put a "title" and a "subtitle" only in the main
\book section, and then in each \score block (or file), I just insert
a "piece" field, in which I put every titles or subtitles I need,
using fill-line, columns, etc. Is it easy, simple, and works
perfectly.

So when you say that in lilypond "plain text is a pain", could you be
more specific (e.g. post a snippet of what made you give up)?

Thanks
