6.1 Integrating Texinfo and music

Music is specified like this:

     @lilypond[options,go,here]
       YOUR LILYPOND CODE
     @end lilypond
     @lilypond[options,go,here]{ YOUR LILYPOND CODE }
     @lilypondfile[options,go,here]{filename}

When lilypond-book is run on it, this results in a texinfo file. We show two simple examples here. First a complete block:

     @lilypond[staffsize=26]
       c' d' e' f' g'2 g'
     @end lilypond

produces

[image of music]

Then the short version:

     @lilypond[staffsize=11]{<c' e' g'>}

produces

[image of music]

When producing texinfo, lilypond-book also generates bitmaps of the music, so you can make a HTML document with embedded music.
