Not sure if it'll help, here some methods to retrieve values:

#(format #t

HTH,

This is great, because I found that I actually preferred to use the original file name. I'm using a template that produces C, B-flat and E-flat versions from a single lead sheet in C, so now I'm using:

    \bookOutputName $(string-append "E-flat/" (ly:parser-output-name))
    \bookOutputSuffix "Eb"

(and similar for the B-flat version) to store the transposed versions in their own directories.

Many thanks!
