Re: Special layout for a score : four hands

True... but I still don't necessarily see it as "completely  
different": the requirements of drawing from two different music  
streams (e.g., Primo and Secondo) and synchronizing bar count across  
pages *could* simply be switches.

Off the top of my head, I can immediately see other uses/examples of  
the same algorithm, e.g., score on one side and markup on the other  
for musicological purposes.

Sure, but Lilypond users shouldn't have to keep going outside  
Lilypond for something as standard and useful as booklet layout(s).

Cheers,
