Re: space between title and music

[Kieren MacMillan]

Hi Martin and David,

> I've adapted scoreTitleMarkup to get the increased space you want:

For [IMO] an even more elegant solution, use the \put-mm function (can't 
remember who wrote it? and shouldn't it be in the base code by now??).
This allows you to avoid all those \column groupings and baseline overrides, 
and the adjustments (in mm) are more intuitive.

Hope this helps!
Kieren.
