Hi Knute,

Yes.

No… That generates a template of code, and pastes it into a file, and then I’m 
meant to fill that structure with data. (Note: Of the ~150 lines of code the 
Score Wizard generated for an SSATTB score, fewer than 90 of them are what I 
would want in my file, and I hate the names it gave them.) Certainly, a wizard 
might be helpful to generate a variable structure (for voices, lyrics, etc., 
but I want all the stuff *after* the variable structure to be abstracted into a 
framework that the user never sees or interacts with [beyond \include-ing it, 
of course].

I want to put music/content variables in a file, \include the framework, and 
immediately get beautiful output.

Short answer: Yes.

Longer answer. No… the score code would be generated dynamically, not as a 
static code blob pasted into a text file (cf. Frescobaldi’s Score Wizard). Did 
you ever see/use OrchestralLily? I imagine it would similar to that.

Again, if/when I have a moment, I’ll try to whip up a MWE — it will be a lot 
easier to discuss (or maybe even imagine!) if we can see a working demo.

Best,
Kieren.
