Re: mBreak function

You probably haven't defined what an mBreak is. The second bullet point begins with "Define mBreak = {\break}". That means you actually have to type into your score, outside of any music block, "mBreak = {\break}".

Hello everyone! Thank you all for your help so far.
There is something that I cannot figure out! I need help...
I'm trying to typeset an existing piece of music with lilypond
I thought that using mBreak was a very good idea as explained in the manual
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.10/Documentation/user/lilypond/Typesetting-existing-music#Typesetting-existing-music
I have tried every different way that I can imagine, and I always get the same:

2.ly:21:27: error: unknown escaped string: `\mBreak'
    gis [_(a) c_(b) ais b]
                           \mBreak
2.ly:21:27: error: syntax error, unexpected STRING
    gis [_(a) c_(b) ais b]
                           \mBreak
2.ly:10:0: error: errors found, ignoring music _expression_

and I am doing it pretty much the same as in the
has anybody gone through this who could give me a hand on how to fix this?
Thanks!
p.s. let me know if you need me to post the whole .ly file
