Further to my recent query I have deduced from various confusing manual entries
that my solution could be as follows
%--------------------------------------------------------------------
% variables for later use to avoid repititions
%---------------------------------------------------------------------
date = #(strftime "%d-%m-%Y" (localtime (current-time)))
xtitle = "Wind Symphony"
xsubtitle = "No. 5 in E flat "
xarranger= "arr C Franklyn"
xChristian = "J C"
xSurname = "Bach"
xdates = "(1735 - 1782)"
xpart = "Clarinet 1"
xinstrument = "Clt1"
xmidiInstrument = "clarinet"
xgraphic="./BachJC.eps"
xstamp = \markup{\concat { "Engraved " \bold \date " with " \with-url
#"http://lilypond.org/" "LilyPond " \simple
#(lilypond-version) " (http://lilypond.org/)" } }
%----------
% markup
%----------
\markup {
\fill-line {
\column {
\center-align {
\vspace #4 \fontsize #10 \concat { \xChristian "
" \xSurname }
\vspace #2 \fontsize #6 \xdates
\vspace #3 \fontsize #10 \xtitle
\vspace #1 \fontsize #10 \xsubtitle
\vspace #2 \fontsize #4 \xarranger
\vspace #2 \general-align #Y #DOWN { \epsfile #Y
#40 #"./BachJC.eps" }
\vspace #2 \fontsize #4 \xpart
\vspace #2 \fontsize #1 \xstamp
}
}
}
}
It is a shame that the manuals do not contain a single source including a
precise definition of all the markup options - similar to
a c++ manual say.
References are spread over a number of manuals, searches usually result in
either a huge number of hits or none either way it is
difficult to resolve problems.
It is not meant to be hypercritical but the experience of a tyro Lilypond user
for the gutus to consider.
