Re: Why a \score inside \markup doesn't allow breaks?

[Mats Bengtsson]

If you take a look at the implementation of the \score markup function, 
you'll notice
that it just picks out the first system of the score and ignores the rest.
A skilled Scheme programmer should be able to easily implement a version 
of \score
that actually typesets all the systems.
