Wouldn’t you just put each measure in a separate cell, so that a cell in column 227 corresponds to measure 227? Deleting the corresponding column would delete the measure, wouldn’t it?. Or do you have a different structure for the Excel spreadsheet in mind?
That’s exactly what I had in mind.(Sorry, I thought you meant the “make”-approach as an alternative rather than an extension to this idea.)I’m experimenting with the spreadsheet-python-appoach atm and it looks quite promising.M

Hi Maximilian,
after having failed at the beginning with abjad (it’s looking better now) I programmed some functions in Python to also be able to access instruments and measures. For measures, I made a function that simply looks for | and gives you back whatever is between | as a list. The Excel approach didn’t occur to me.

Hi Max,
Caveat: I've not used this personally, my scores are not complex enough.
One of the standard ways of handling this is to use make (https://www.gnu.org/software/make). Basically you write a makefile which tells make which files to compile and use that as the input to Lilypond. Make is clever though, and can select files on the basis of the last time they were changed, or if given parameters (for instance to generate part scores).
See http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.21/Documentation/usage/make-and-makefiles for Lily's take on this.
Regards,
Martin

Hi Everyone,
Over last last couple of days I have been thinking about possible ways to organize the engraving of a rather large piece (~45+ staves) in Lilypond.
My problem is that the piece in question might undergo significant changes in the future, so I need access to both instrument-wise and measure-wise organisation simultaneously.
I am considering to enter the entire music in a huge excel spreadsheet and to write a (python)-script to create one .ly file per voice,
storing all the music in variables that can be used both in the full score and the individual parts.
I’m having difficulties imagining that I am the first one to have this idea, but couldn’t find anything online.
Any hints?
Thanks a lot!
Cheers,
Max
