The latter. I have one file of music variable definitions for each song, e.g.,
/MyProject/Song1_notes.ily
/MyProject/Song2_notes.ily
etc.
[Note: All naming is "pseudocode" here, for clarity.] Then I have multiple
scores built using one or more of those music definition files, such as
/MyProject/PianoConductor_letter.ly
/MyProject/PianoVocal_letter.ly
/MyProject/ChorusVocal_letter.ly
/MyProject/FullScore_letter.ly
/MyProject/Song1_standalone_letter.ly
etc.
I \include each *_notes.ily file into each main "score" (*_letter.ly) file as
required. I suppose I *could* save all the tweak \include files for the score
file… But then I'd have to keep track [in my brain, I guess?] of which tweak
files were needed for each song, and to my mind that's a recipe for disaster
(or at least frustration and inefficiency).
Hope that makes it clearer. =)
Thanks,
Kieren.
