Well, I have only given simple examples. Suppose I want the
midi file to have a different rhythm than the source, for example,
as is the case in some music styles. In fact, I think my
rptarg = "volta"
...
\repeat \rptarg 2
method completely simple. If I
submit a .ly score to the mutopia project, I am asked to explain
how to create the midi output instead of the source file. Isn't
it simpler, from their point of view, if I tell them to change
one line, and all other changes follow?
Looking at the ottava example (input/test/ottava.ly), this seems
to have been done using centralCPosition, which doesn't seem to
be documented in 1.6.6, though I do notice the example is from
1.6.7. If this doesn't produce the result, I don't understand
the example.
(By the way, searching for 'unfolded-repeat' under Regression Tests
produces no result.)
Is it possible to pass two music expressions to a scheme function
as arguments?
