Re: edition-engraver and partcombine

[Urs Liska]

Hi Jan-Peter,

that would be great.
I intend to write a post about the tool soon - from a user's, not from 
the developer's perspective. Maybe I should wait with this some more.

BTW: I'm still not completely convinced that edition-engraver really is 
the right name.

In the meantime I have found a workaround for my problem at hand.
Well, it's not really a workaround but in fact an extremely more elegant 
and "semantically correct" solution for what I want to achieve.
Now I create two complete parts and do the partcombination to them as a 
whole - creating only one set of four voices.

Best
Urs
