Re: Replacement Macros - Ooops! Try Again Again

[Simon J Mackenzie]

Hi Tao,
Except this is an assignment and not a macro substitution so it wont
work in my situation...

\header {
   %Common settings
   poet = #(markup lyricist)
}

\book {
   \bookpart {
      \header {
         lyricist = \markup { \bold "Yaahda Ohda" }
         composer = \markup { \italics "Bill G.t.s" }
      }
      etc...
   }
   \bookpart {
      \header {
         lyricist = \markup { \bold "Tom Albany" }
         composer = \markup { \italics "Bill G.t.s" }
      }
      etc...
   }
etc...
}

This code will fail to compile because lyricist is an unbound variable
in the first instance.

Cheers
Simon
