Thanks for info, Phil.

Well, the new version of the snippet suffers from exactly the same
problem as the old version, except _more so_.  The fact that the
snippet defines *three* separate staff contexts for the "Low" parts,
which don't split _at all_, is a complete and utter abomination, and
it almost gave me a heart attack.  This is unbelievably ugly, and
against good programming practices.

I have expanded my code from my previous email to also show two staves
converging into one (see attached).  Please note that i didn't have to
make *any* changes to the \score block structure - i have just added
commands for new arrows and written more music to the _existing_
variables.  I believe this proves my code is superior to the one from
the snippet.

cheers,
Janek

=============================================

I've updated the LSR with your snippet: the code base will have this 
following an LSR import.
