It means you don't have all the required dependencies installed. Beginning with guile-1.8, plus all the others in the error message. The way forward is to install each of them. I'm my experience it was quite a puzzle to find all the right package names. It took al lot of googling.

Apologies. I have no idea why, but this afternoon my code appeared to have no effect on the spacing; this evening it works. Yet I haven't changed a thing. Clearly something changed, but I have no idea what. At least my original thought that "this ought to work" was correct! David

Hi, The StartDelimiterHierarchy gives the possibility to change the first bracket by anything you want, for instance: [...] It would be interesting if your function can manage also that! I guess this is what happens when you start coding before agreeing on a desirable user interface ;-).

In string parts, I often use more than one stave where a section is divisi. I write, for instance, \set Staff.shortInstrumentName = "2." when one player (or sub-section) is required, or \set Staff.shortInstrumentName = \markup \column { "3." "4." } if two players need to play this line. The

Hello Sebastian, what do you mean with "return"? Do want to add the score immediatly or do you want to return an object containing both? You used the parser-location arguments in your scheme-function, so I guess you are using stable (2.18). I created an example for 2.18 (incomplete) and one for
