I too would be very interested in this.  I have seen what Michael has done with 
having a clean, neat order, and I like it.  So the automation part is no 
problem.

But - for newbies at LaTeX like me - some kind of pre-written style for 
liturgical books would help.  I myself am retypesetting the Vesperale, but I am 
sticking to the chant to the timebeing because the formatting is going to cause 
me such headaches in LaTeX.

If someone could come up with a Desclée-style ”Template” then this would be of 
great service to everyone.

Best wishes,
Mark
