I installed 2.19.84 and I believe I just answered the first question

and now we have \compressMMRests which has different functionality.
I guessing convert-ly won't handle this and that any time I want to
redo any of my hundreds of pieces (not original compositions) I will
have to edit them for the new functionality of \compressMMRests.
I have no idea why people "guess convert-ly won't handle this" and break
into a rant rather than actually trying.
I wasn't aware of the name change of \compressFullBarRests at that
point. I have no doubt about the ability of convert-ly to do a simple
name change. I was thinking convert-ly could do the structural change
I erroneously thought was necessary to solve wha I thought was my
problem.
convert-ly actually does some fairly involved things these days if one
gives it a chance.
I wouldn't consider what I said to be a rant and didn't intend to
rant.
"I guessing convert-ly won't handle this and that any time I want to

Why stress that you are talking about hundreds of pieces here that
you'll have to manually edit?
