Re: Uniform spacing throughout scores.

[Mats Bengtsson]

The new line is trivial, just insert a  \break. However, the extra 
indent is
hard to do that way. I guess what you really are saying is that for scores
that only have a single line, the spacing will often be more tight than that
of scores with multiple lines, right? In a way, this is natural since 
the only
option is to split the single line into two, which will double the 
spacing and
may result in too wide spacing instead.

You can always insert a manual line break at appropriate places in the 
scores
that look too tight. An alternative is to try to fiddle with the 
parameters that
determine the default spacing, see "10.1.8 Horizontal Spacing".
