Re: custom titles example doesn't work

[Tom Cloyd]

James, and Reinhold,

Thanks for your response.

Yes it is late, but that's not the problem (really!). THIS is the 
problem - the Notation Reference (NR) for GNU LilyPond version 2.11.56, 
section 3.2.2 on creating custom titles, says this about 
"evenHeaderMarkup": "This is the page header for even-numbered pages. If 
unspecified, the odd header is used instead."

So by specifying "odd..." but NOT "even..." I was trying to be clever 
and specify both in one statement. The documentation, to me, indicates 
that this is possible, and even a designed in feature. That would be 
perfect, since what I'm wanting is a title on each page, so that loose 
page are identified as to the piece they're from. A reasonable idea, no?

But what I got was something different. I got a header on page 1 - 
clearly not needed, as it's already titled, but not one on page 2, where 
the documentation says there should be one, by virtue of the default.

Is my confusion a bit more understandable now?

I'm not sure what to do at this point.

You are defining "oddPageHeader", which is for odd-numbered pages. If 
you want
the header to appear on page 2, you should use "evenPageHeader" instead...

Cheers,
