This is nice, but the purpose of providing working code is to make it
easier for people to fill in the blanks you are missing.

Some piece of LilyPond code that does not compile, and that even if it
did compile were missing what you want to see?

I think you are overestimating people's abilities...

I don't know why it should.  Looks like it appeared just fine on the
list.

Have to be off now, so won't reply with anything more useful right now.
I think we might have discussed this problem once already on the list
but I don't know what code (if any) might have been waved around in the
course of the discussion.
