@item ragged-right
Produce ragged-right lines with natural spacing, i.e.,
-@code{ragged-right = ##t} is added to the LilyPond snippet. This is the
-default for the @code{\lilypond@{@}} command if no @code{line-width}
-option is present. It is also the default for the @code{lilypond}
-environment if the @code{fragment} option is set, and no line width is

+snippets will always be typeset by default as ragged-right, unless
+@code{noragged-right} is explicitly given.

For single-line snippets, allow the staff length to be stretched to
called @file{foo.ly}, it creates a file @file{foo.texidoc} if there

Assuming the file @file{foo.ly} contains

@file{foo.texidoc}.
-@item lilyquote
-(Only for Texinfo output.) This option is similar to quote, but only
-the music snippet (and the optional verbatim block implied by
-@code{verbatim} option) is put into a quotation block. This option is
-useful if you want to @code{quote} the music snippet but not the
-@code{texidoc} documentation block.

@item doctitle
(Only for Texinfo output.) This option works similarly to
@code{texidoc} option: if @command{lilypond} is called with the
twocolumn mode, remember to add @option{-t landscape} to the
@command{dvips} options.

@subsubheading Texinfo
To produce a Texinfo document (in any output format), follow the normal
invoke further processing commands such as @command{makeinfo} or
@command{latex} with the same @option{-I @var{dir}} options.
+@item -l @var{loglevel}
+@itemx --loglevel=@var{loglevel}
+Set the output verbosity to @var{loglevel}. Possible values are @code{NONE},
+@code{ERROR}, @code{WARNING}, @code{PROGRESS} (default) and @code{DEBUG}. If
+this option is not used, and the environment variable
+@code{LILYPOND_BOOK_LOGLEVEL} is set, its value is used as the loglevel.
+
@item -o @var{dir}
@itemx --output=@var{dir}
Place generated files in directory @var{dir}. Running
@example
lilypond-book --output=out yourfile.lytex
cd out
-...
+@dots{}
@end example
-@itemx --skip-lily-check
+@item --skip-lily-check
Do not fail if no lilypond output is found. It is used for LilyPond
Info documentation without images.
-@itemx --skip-png-check
+@item --skip-png-check
Do not fail if no PNG images are found for EPS files. It is used for
LilyPond Info documentation without images.
-@itemx --lily-output-dir=@var{dir}
+@item --lily-output-dir=@var{dir}
Write lily-XXX files to directory @var{dir}, link into @option{--output}
directory. Use this option to save building time for documents in
different directories which share a lot of identical snippets.
-@itemx --info-images-dir=@var{dir}
+@item --lily-loglevel=@var{loglevel}
+Set the output verbosity of the invoked @command{lilypond} calls to
+@var{loglevel}. Possible values are @code{NONE}, @code{ERROR},
+@code{WARNING}, @code{BASIC_PROGRESS}, @code{PROGRESS}, @code{INFO}
+(default) and @code{DEBUG}. If this option is not used, and the
+environment variable @code{LILYPOND_LOGLEVEL} is set, its value is used
+as the loglevel.
+
+
+@item --info-images-dir=@var{dir}
Format Texinfo output so that Info will look for images of music in
@var{dir}.
-@itemx --latex-program=@var{prog}
+@item --latex-program=@var{prog}
Run executable @command{prog} instead of @command{latex}. This is
useful if your document is processed with @command{xelatex}, for
example.
-@itemx --left-padding=@var{amount}
+@item --left-padding=@var{amount}
Pad EPS boxes by this much. @var{amount} is measured in millimeters,
and is 3.0 by default. This option should be used if the lines of
music stick out of the right margin.
By default, output is displayed on the terminal. This option redirects
all output to log files in the same directory as the source files.
-@itemx --use-source-file-names
+@item --use-source-file-names
Write snippet output files with the same base name as their source file.
This option works only for snippets included with @code{lilypondfile}
and only if directories implied by @option{--output-dir} and
