Hello, Hu Haipeng, I'm always amazed at your scores! I'd like to use this for our orchestral example. However, this particular page of examples only contains very short snippets -- between 2 to 5 bars. The idea is let new users get a quick idea of lilypond's output. Would it be ok if we used

Does anyone still use breakbefore?

For a couple of years now, we've had Nicolas' cool top-level \pageBreak commands. So I'd like to get rid of the code supporting the old breakbefore \paper block variable. Before I do, is there still a use-case for it? Cheers, Joe ___ lilypond-user
