Re: lilypond-book

[Mats Bengtsson]

If you change it to
 \lilypond[fragment,relative]{c4 d e f}
it seems to work (apart from the bugs I've already reported).

However, it seems that you have found yet another bug, namely that
lilypond-book strips of all right braces from within the
\lilypond{...} in the generated lily-*.ly files.
Of course, this is a classical parsing problem, since lilypond-book
has to realize which right brace belongs to the example and which
is the end of the example. Since there's no way to describe arbitrarily
deeply nested pairs of braces in a regular expression, I don't see an
easy way to handle the situation, unless we start escaping right braces
within \lilypond{...} or introducing some extra conventions that the 
final right brace should end the line and the full \lilypond{...} should
be on a single line, or so. At least this limitation should be
documented.
