Hi Ben!

The include command is very easy to understand. Just read the chapter in the
manual or do a quick search and you'll get the grasp of it in no time.

Some parts are split in two files: "InstrumentNameMusic.ly" and
"InstrumentName.Score.ly". The part is generated from the latter. The former
contains only the music itself (notes, rests, slurs, etc.)

A few parts are not divided this way and show only the name of the
instrument, meaning that everything needed to generate the score is in
there.

I don't know which operating system you use. I'm on a Mac with Snow Leopard
10.6.8. I use Frescobaldi as a GUI.

So it's just a blank page? Isn't there some error mesage?

Antonio
