Really? It's like having a BASIC program which always starts with a
line number:
%{ 1 %} a,4 ( a4 ) ( b4 ) d4 |
%{ 2 %} a,4 ( a4 ) ( b4 ) d4 |
%{ 3 %} a,4 ( a4 ) ( b4 ) d4 |
%{ 4 %} a,4 ( a4 ) ( b4 ) d4 |
%{ 5 %} a,4 ( a4 ) ( b4 ) d4 |
%{ 6 %} a,4 ( a4 ) ( b4 ) d4 |
%{ 7 %} a,4 ( a4 ) ( b4 ) d4 |
%{ 8 %} a,4 ( a4 ) ( b4 ) d4 |
%{ 9 %} a,4 ( a4 ) ( b4 ) d4 |
%{ 10 %} a,4 ( a4 ) ( b4 ) d4 |
As mentioned earlier, I don't like to type this, but having such a
format returned by musicxml2ly is good IMHO. After some time you get
used to it, and line numbers are only looked at if you really need
them.

I fully agree.
