Re: file structure (hierarchy)

[Walter Hofmeister]

Hi Werner,
	I have made a quick search for \skipBar and have not been able to  
find it. Where did you find it? Looking at your \score block I am not  
sure why you are using it where you are. What exactly is it supposed  
to skip? As I understand it, Score.skipTypesetting is used to skip  
typsetting a block of music so that you can check a portion of a  
piece quickly. ie. you don't have to wait for a large score to  
compile everything every time. The property is set within the notes  
and gets set to ##t at the beginning of the block that you want to  
skip, and then set to ##f at the end of the block (at the point that  
you want Lilypond to begin rendering).

Hope this helps, and hope that I have not totally missed the point.
