Hi!

I'm working on a projekt more or less basede on the struktures and models in the LSR snippet on anglican chant. My projekt is to create a set of linked source- files and template- files to set texts for Orthodox services (in Finish) to the fourpart melodic formulas (eight "tones" with formulas for several different types of chant in each) used in the Orthodox church in Finland.

The source- files will contain the musical material that is variables with the melodiclines of each modelphrase in the different types of chant (and of course for all the parts in the four part setting).

The template files there will hold the score- block where the user enters these variables in the order of phrase cyckle for each type of chant. The templates will also hold variables where the user can enter the lyrics for each phrase. The musical material will be imported by use of the \include {/filename./ly} command.

I would like to have point and click to the template- files only and point and click dissabled to the source- files. The templates (or more correctly copys of the templates) are something of a user interface for the set of files. Adding a \pointAndClickOff command to the source- file at the begining of the file doesn't work as it will dissable point and click to the temlate file also.

The structure for a pair of files (source and template) is something like this
_
Source- File

_%% variables for phrases

sopA =  {
the inital pattern of the phrase ... %% the music to the A phrase
                the recitating note usualy a breve note
                the finalis pattern of the phrase
               }

sopB = ... the music for the second phrase of the sopranopart

et.c. et.c et.c

bassA = ... the music for the first phrase of the Basspart
bassB = ... the music of the second phrase of the Basspart
_Template in separate Template file_

\include "source.ly"

%% variables for the lyrics of each phrase

verseA = \lyricmode { %% the lyrics of the A phrase
            hypenated words to initial pattern of phrase
            \markup { the words Many of them for the recitation note}
            hypenated words to the finalis patern of the phrase.
}
verseB =  \lyricmode ....the lyric for the second phrase

et.c. et.c.

\score {

   \new Choirstaff
   <<
         \new Staff = women
            <<
                  \context Voice = soprano {
                           \sopA
                           \sopB
                              et.c.
                           \sopA
                              et.c.
                     }
                   \context Voice = alto et. c. et.c
            >>
         \context Lyrics = sopranol \lyristo "soprano" {
                        \verseA
                         \verseB
                           et.c.
                          \verseAb
                           et.c.
                       }
      \new Staff  = men
            <<
                  \context Voice tenor {
                     et.c.
                       }
                  \context Voice basso {
                        \bassA
                        \bassB
                           et.c.
                        \bassA
                           et.c.
}
            >>
   >>
\layout {
}
%% headers and stuff
}

The code/ semicode above is a draft only. Point and click would be needed to template file as the user have to manipulate the lyrics in the variables for the lyric phrases to get lyrics placed correctly to the melodic formulas of each phrase as the paterns make a differense between notes for accented sylables and un accented and the texts are not metrical poetry. As the melodic formulas for each phrase are reused in extenso ( apart from some variations manipulated by use of Tags) the user dosb't have to and shouldn't manipulate the source files especialy as the ide of the formulas are tho be able to use the same source for several different texts.
