Wikilily: \includes

[Mike Blackstock]

you can now (well, experimentally) use \includes on wikilily.org. An 
example is at 
http://draft.wikilily.org/wiki/index.php/Winterreise/Gefrorne_Tranen - 
click on the 'edit' tab to see/edit the ly source.

You'll see there :
\include "vocals.ly"
\include "pianoRH.ly"
\include "pianoLH.ly"

The parser sees '\include' and then looks at the page name (in this 
case, "Gefrorne_Tranen") and uses that as a prefix to find a page called 
"Gefrorne_Tranen/vocals.ly"; the page contents are then written to the 
file "vocals.ly" in the  lilypond jail tree and lilypond just compiles 
as per normal.

So if you start a page called "BlowMe" with an include called 
"NotInYourLife.ly", just make sure you have a page called 
"BlowMe/NotInYourLife.ly"
on the wiki.

Seems to work, as a proof of concept at least. It doesn't recursively 
descend the files as of yet - if NotInYourLife.ly has itself some 
'\includes' it won't work - but that's a relatively trivial matter to 
address.

I grabbed an unfinished, abandoned Mozart symphony project from mutopia 
and will post that up  for anybody  who would like to help finish it. 
I'll post it today or Monday - my boss just poured another glass of 
Lagavulin in preparation for his garden party so i may not get much work 
done today.

Cheers,
Mike
