I'm sorry for that, I am currently using my webmail client, which makes
it tempting to write at the top ;-)

Oh dear, of course I mean "songbook script". My thoughts must have
wandered here...

I am familiar with the command line, but i am working with windows.
I am basically looking for a promising place to start.
I have found this
<http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.10/Documentation/user/lilypond/Inserting-LilyPond-output-into-other-programs#Inserting-LilyPond-output-into-other-programs>
That looks quite fine, except that this gives me the lilypond file in
one big file, not linewise. But I need to have the lines, as I want to
make page breaks and use the space under the music to add text.
kind regards,
Philip
