A \book can't contain assignments.
Hi David, what do you mean by assignments? I'm not a native speaker and not
familiar with programming. Is assignments a fix set of command?

Hello Kai,
it's the assignment of a variable in lily-syntax:
--snip--
% allowed
musik = \relative c'' { bes a c b }
% not allowed
\score {
musik = \relative c'' { bes a c b }
}
--snip--
that means, that a construct [var = value] (without []) may never be
inside { ... } or ...
You might trick that:
--snip--
parserDefine = #(define-music-function (parser location name
mus)(symbol? not-null?)
(ly:parser-define! parser name mus)
(make-music 'SequentialMusic 'void #t))
--snip--
and then use
\parserDefine #'musik \relative c'' { c e d b }
parserDefine now is a music-function and can be used anywhere. This way
the variable musik can be assigned and afterwords called via \musik
... but I woudn't recommend it! This might have *side-effects* and can
lead to badly organized code!

Re: combining pieces in one book
Hi Jan-Peter,
thanks for the explanation. Right now I am fiddling around with Christophers
idea of splitting up the files in content-files and layout-files. I had this
before and just changed… Oh, well. It sounds logical to me though. and working
with functions is just copy and paste for me, because I don't now the code and
couldn't find an error nor tweak the options.
Thanks also to the others, that gave their comments. Now I have to ponder the
answers. I fear though, I will be back again with more questions… ;-)
best regards,
Kai

combining pieces in one book
Hi to all, If this has been answered before, please point me there. I searched the manual several times, but couldn't find an answer, that helped me. I have many pieces for male choir, that are stored as .ly-files in a directory with a subdirectory for every piece. All of them use some files via \include command. Those files are situated in the parent directory. Now I would like to make a book (one PDF with TOC and numbered pages) from several of these pieces. And - to make it more complicated - this book changes in content (the .ly-files are the repertoire, book will be the selection for any given concert. I am searching for a solution to _easily_ make those books without working on the pieces-files. Using \bookpart gave a great number of errors and didn't compile. Can anyone give me a starter, how to go about this? Thanks Kai ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

As best I can tell, you need to structure things carefully to make this
work. This may mean that you will need to do a one-time edit on the
pieces themselves.
1) Music content with no \score.
2) Individual layout pieces: \include the music content and have a \score.
3) Book file, \includes each piece of music, uses \bookpart if you like
and \score.
I automate this to some degree by pulling out paper and other common
definitions, e.g.:
=-=-=-=-=
wind_barley_tune.ly:
\windBarleyLayout = \new Staff ...
\windBarleyTitle = The Wind That Shakes the Barley
=-=-=-=-=
tunes.ly:
\paper { ... }
\header { title = \theTitle }
\score { \theLayout \layout {} }
=-=-=-=-=
wind_barley.ly:
\include wind_barley_tune.ly
theLayout = \windBarleyLayout
theTitle = \windBarleyTitle
\include tunes.ly
=-=-=-=-=
crism_tunes.ly:
\paper { ... }
\header { ... }
\include musical_priest_tune.ly
\include wind_barley_tune.ly
\score { \musPriestLayout \layout {} }
\score { \windBarleyLayout \layout {} }
=-=-=-=-=

2 obvious options come to mind: lilypond-book, which is documented in the
Usage manual
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/usage/lilypond_002dbook.
Alternatively, you can simply use \book in the following way:
\book {
\markup { Some text }
\include AFile.ly
}
You would need to add your own contents page once the layout was sorted out.

I am using a Mac and am not experienced enough to understand the manual and
requirements mentioned there. All the extern programs won't work, telling my,
there is no python to be found. It's there, though - but this should be a new
topic here. Only: lilypond-book has not been a solution so far.

\book {
\markup { Some text }

Sounds good. I did this:
---8---SNIP---
\version 2.15.40
\book {
\markup { 001Test }
\include ../001Test/001Test.ly
}
---8---SNIP---
