Thanks for the pointer. I had actually downloaded that file when it
was announced, because of the contents, but it most certainly seems
that I will have to look at make.

One problem: it doesn't seem to be possible to use the recommended --output=out 
for the
files generated by lilypond-book if it is supposed to be part of a
larger tex file, is that correct?

I have the following structure:

whole-book.tex
chapter1.tex
chapter2.tex
.
.
etc
.
appendix.lytex
out/
     appendix.tex
     loads
     of
     garbage
     and
     eps
     files

If I have \include{out/appendix} in the master file whole-book.tex,
the latex compilation stops, complaining that 

    "! I can't find file `lily-c02d2e2f36-systems.tex'."

So I assume that out/ is not searched for files, only ./
It's not that I mind having all the files in the top dir, though, I
was just wondering.
