Re: blocking midi output of included files

[James Bailey]

That doesn't work. Think of it this way
fileOne.ly \score {...\layout{}\midi{}}
fileTwo.ly \score {...\layout{}\midi{}}
bookOne.ly \include "fileOne.ly" \include "fileTwo.ly"

The question is if it is possible to suppress the midi file  
generation when bookOne.ly is compiled. I don't think so, but then, I  
have little problem just ignoring or deleting the unnecessarily midi  
files.
