Re: insertion of current date in text string

[Jonathan Kulp]

Wow, I didn't realize you could have the date put in automagically like 
that!  Pretty cool.  Is it the Lilypond version number that you want to 
insert?  I don't know how to do it in the subsubtitle, but it always 
appears in the last footer of the score by default, right?  It does in 
my scores anyway.  Not sure how you'd capture that value and use it in 
the subsubtitle...
