Hello, this thread from the user ml remained idle without an answer. Then I
suspect it shows a bug. Please can you check it?
Best,

Hi Kieren,
this is what I was searching for.
However, the doc says that  "it skips all events, including tempo and
instrument changes", but in the proposed example the \tempo instruction is
not skipped.
How can I make it skip *all* events?

Thanks!
