@command{lilypond-book} is a script that helps integrating lilypond with
overwritten.
If you use @code{--outdir}, you should also @code{cd} to that directory
-before running LaTeX or makeinfo.

-@strong{[UGH: IS THIS THE BEST WAY TO DO IT? MAYBE ADD A COMMENT LINE TO THE
-GENERATED FILE, SO LILYPOND-BOOK CAN TEST IF THE FILE IT IS TO OVERWRITE
-IS GENERATED.]}
+before running LaTeX or makeinfo. This may seem a little kludgy, but
+both Latex and makeinfo expect picture files (the music) to be in the
+current working directory. Moreover, if you do this, LaTeX will not
+clutter you normal working directory with output files.

-So what does this look like? Well, here is an example:
-@lilypond[veryverbatim, intertext="produces this music:"]
-\score{
- \notes\relative c'{
- \time 5/8;
- [e16( g b c a g][e a b d] | )e2 d,8 |
- [e16( g b c a g][e a b d] | )b2 [a16( f] |
- [e a b d] )e4 c8 | [es16( bes a as g es][d c b! )g] |
- [f( a b d b a][f a b d] | )e2
- }
-}
-@end lilypond
-If you are lucky, the above example show a nice feature of LilyPond
-and La@TeX{}. Since LilyPond can output the music as @TeX{} graphics,
-La@TeX{} can insert pagebreaks between the lines of music.
-
-Notice that there is no @code{\paper} statement in the example
-above. Lilypond-book will insert some code for you that defines the
-linewidth and the font to use. If you don't want to change the default,
-there is no need to put an empty @code{\paper@{@}} inside the @code{\score}.
-In the example above, something like
-this might be inserted before your code:
-@example
-\include "paper16.ly"
-\paper@{ \paper_sixteen
- linewidth = 390.\pt;
- castingalgorithm = \Gourlay;
-@}
-@end example
-The actual values for linewidth will differ depending on papersize and
-number of columns. Also, if you use a different fontsize for the
-music, another file than @code{paper16.ly} will be included.
-
-If you want to make the music not so wide, you can insert a
-@code{\paper} statement that set the linewidth:
-
-@lilypond[veryverbatim, intertext="produces this music:"]
-\score{
- \notes\relative c'{
- \time 5/8;
- [e16( g b c a g][e a b d] | )e2 d,8 |
- [e16( g b c a g][e a b d] | )b2 [a16( f] |
- [e a b d] )e4 c8 | [es16( bes a as g es][d c b! )g] |
- [f( a b d b a][f a b d] | )e2
- }
- \paper{linewidth = 10.\cm;}
-}
-@end lilypond
-
-Very often, if you mix music and text, the music is often only a
-few notes or at most a few bars. This music should be as short as
-possible and not stretched to be aligned to the right margin.
-
-If you only write voice-contents in the lilypond block, @command{lilypond-book}
-will set the @code{linewidth} variable to -1, so Lilypond
-will make the music as short as possible but without breaking the
-line. Here is a well know harmonic progression:
-@lilypond[veryverbatim, intertext="produce a well known harmonic progression:"]
- \context Voice { <c' e g> <b d g> <c2 e g> }
-@end lilypond
-
-If you want to place music examples in the text,
-@lilypond[eps]
-\context Voice { <c' e g> <b d g> <c2 e g>}
-@end lilypond
-, you can use the @code{eps} option. This will create the music as
-eps graphics and include it into the document with the
-@code{\includegraphics} command.
-
-The code used look like this:
-@example
-@@lilypond[eps]
- \context Voice { <c' e g> <b d g> <c2 e g> }
-@@end lilypond
-@end example
-
-You can also use the @code{eps} option if the block is a complete
-lilypond source. This 5 cm long empty line,
-@lilypond[eps]
-\score{
- \notes{s}
- \paper{ linewidth = 5.\cm;}
-}
-@end lilypond
-was created with this code:
-@example
-@@lilypond[eps]
-\score@{
- \notes@{s@}
- \paper@{ linewidth = 5.\cm;@}
-@}
-@@end lilypond
-@end example
-
-To avoid that La@TeX{} places the music on a line of its one, there should
-be no empty lines between the normal text and the lilypond
-environment.
-
-You can also use @code{lilypondfile} (on a separate line, FIXME), to
-include another file.
-
-@section Fontsize options You can use all lilypond fontsizes in
-@command{lilypond-book}. The default 16pt fontsize is probably to big to be
-included in the middle of the text, 11pt or 13pt is probably better.
-
-The code can look like this:
-@example
-@@lilypond[13pt, eps]
-<c' e g>
-@@end lilypond
-@end example
-
-The following options set the fontsize:
-@itemize
-@item @code{11pt}
-@lilypond[11pt, eps]
- \relative c'{
- r16 [c d e][f d e c] [g'8 c][b-\prall c] |
- [d16 g, a b][c a b g][d'8 g f-\prall g]
- }
-@end lilypond
-@item @code{13pt}
-@lilypond[13pt, eps]
- \relative c'{
- r16 [c d e][f d e c] [g'8 c][b-\prall c] |
- [d16 g, a b][c a b g][d'8 g f-\prall g]
- }
-@end lilypond
-@item @code{16pt}
-@lilypond[16pt, eps]
- \relative c'{
- r16 [c d e][f d e c] [g'8 c][b-\prall c] |
- [d16 g, a b][c a b g][d'8 g f-\prall g]
- }
-@end lilypond
-@item @code{20pt}
-@lilypond[20pt, eps]
- \relative c'{
- r16 [c d e][f d e c] [g'8 c][b-\prall c] |
- [d16 g, a b][c a b g][d'8 g f-\prall g]
- }
-@end lilypond
-@item @code{26pt}
-@lilypond[26pt, eps]
- \relative c'{
- r16 [c d e][f d e c] [g'8 c][b-\prall c] |
- [d16 g, a b][c a b g][d'8 g f-\prall g]
- }
-@end lilypond
-@end itemize
-
-
-@section More options
-@itemize
-@item The @code{singleline} option set @code{linewidth} to -1.0.
-@item The @code{multiline} option set @code{linewidth} to a value letting
-the music be aligned to the right margin. The music can span several
-lines.
-@end itemize
-
-@section Just in case...
-The options @code{fragment} and @code{nonfragment} will override
-@command{lilypond-book} when it scans the lilypond code to see if it is voice
-contents or complete code. This might be useful if @command{lilypond-book} choose
-wrong.
-
-Since there is no finder's fee which doubles every year, there is no
-need to wait for the price money to grow. So send a bug report today
-if you need this one of these options.
-
-@section Examples
-
-This was all options to @code{\begin}. The rest of the lilypond
-document will show some ways you can use lilypond in
-La@TeX{} documents. It will also act as a simple test-suite for
-lilypond-book. You can place @code{eps} lilypond in and marginspars just
-as any other included eps graphics.

-To the right you can see some bars from the trumpet fanfara from the
-beginning of the fantastic street opera ``Houdini the Great'', by the
-Danish composer Andy Pape. The music is put inside a
-@code{floatingfigure} environment, and the music will be aligned by
-the right marging if you set floatingfigure width and lilypond linewidth
-to the same value. The code looks like this:
-
-@lilypond[verbatim]
-\score{
- \notes\relative c'{
- \time 12/8;
- r4.-\fermata [b16-.( )b-.] [f'8-- dis16-.( )dis-. gis8--]
- [f16-.( )f-. dis8-- gis16-.( )gis-.] cis8.-\fermata |
-

-@end lilypond
-
-If you have a lot of small music examples like this in the middle of
-your text, you might get a nicer look by using ``double'' line
-spacing. Put the @code{\linespread@{1.6@}} command into the preamble of
-your document. Then the line spacing will not be increased between the
-lines where you have music printed with the smallest font size.
-
-Lilypond-book does know about @code{\onecolumn} and @code{\twocolumn}.
-So the music will be adjusted to the new linewith:
-
-Verbatim environments will also ignore the page margins. That is
-a feature of La@TeX{}. (But you usually put things inside a verbatim
-environment when you don't want La@TeX{} to do any linebreaking)
-
-@end ignore
