\tempo 4 = 72
\override Score.MetronomeMark #'stencil = ##f
Nick, I've been using:
tpoMidi = #(define-music-function (parser location bUnit rayt) (number?
number?)
#{
\once \set Score.tempoHideNote = ##t
\set Score.tempoWholesPerMinute =
The following minimal example generates the error programming error:
cannot align on self: empty element in the console log.
\version 2.13.58
\relative c' {
\tempo 4 = 72
\override Score.MetronomeMark #'stencil = ##f
c4 c c c
}
Comment out either the \tempo indication

Nothing to indicate where the error
but this resulted in heaps of warnings:
programming error: cannot align on self: empty element

I hope you would give me one of the workarounds:
1) explain why the warnings appear (although the scores are compilable)
2) tell me a better way to stop and to start lyrics
