Re: Numering for exercises

[Mats Bengtsson]

One solution is to make all the exercises as separate lines of the same 
\score and use the rehearsal mark mechanism for the numbering.
Here's an example:

\version "2.10.33"

#(set-default-paper-size "letter")

newexample = {
 \break
 % Force a time signature at the top of the new example
 \time 4/4
 % Typeset the number
 \mark \default
}

\score {
\new RhythmicStaff {

\newexample
b'2 b
r4 b r b
b r b r
b2 r4 b
\bar "|."

\newexample
b'2. b4
r4 b8 b r4 b
b r b r
b2 r4 b
\bar "|."
}
}

\layout{
 % Only make each line as long as necessary
 ragged-right = ##t
 % Don't indent the first line (= first example)
 indent = 0
 \context{
   \Score
   % Get rid of bar numbering
   \remove Bar_number_engraver
   % Get rid of reminder time signature at the end of the    % previous line
   \override TimeSignature #'break-visibility = #end-of-line-invisible
   % Use numbers instead of letters
   markFormatter = #format-mark-numbers
 }
}
