Whatever Lilypond is doing internally, there's some arbitrary limit to the numbers it uses. Time signatures above some large value cause a crash. Too many tuplets of too many different kinds causes Lilypond to crash. There's no reason for that. None whatever. A competent programmer would not

Thank you.  I might find this useful some time, if I have correctly understood what the purpose of it is. For the particular case I was concerned with, though, simply using #(define partName "Cello 1") seems a lot simpler. I just wondered why the Lilypond form isn't allowed in a situation where

In short, yes, such things exist, though not in Lilypond. I am a computational musicologist that collaborates in developing tools for analysing counterpoint. We've got tools like this to use in Humdrum or Music21. I think the Lilypond implementation would not be trivial (as Urs says), but I'll

hey, seems like my thoughts did spark some interest :-) . I had no knowledge of Humdrum at all, but I've read something about music21 before. If I'm reading it right Music21 is a python library to analyse music. I'm probably thinking way to simplistic, but frescobaldi is written in python too.
