Comment #1 on issue 686 by address@hidden: Enhancement:  
showLastLength as a command-line option
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=686

Mike Solomon made a fresh request for this enhancement, here:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.lilypond.bugs/35425

and see comments from Urs Liska in the above thread. Quoting Mike's  
original post:

"It'd be great to have a command line option that specifies the
number of measures (or eighth notes or whatever) to typeset at
the end of a piece.  This way, skipTypesetting can be called from the
command line or set as an option in a header file.  It'd speed up
workflow a lot."
