Normalization option reference

Generated from the native formatter menu built with this wiki. Read consolidation and normalization for recipes, refusal conditions, comment handling, and the difference between compact spacing and musical reuse. Check your installed build with scorescript format --list.

pitch

concert or written source: convert notes, keys and transpose maps together; sound unchanged.

arrange

part streams, measure systems, system breaks or rehearsal sections.

maps

meter/key/tempo/transpose: header maps, or at mN { … } in place; system/page cuts are separate.

opening-key

a movement's opening key: stated with the movement's facts, or in the reader head that opens it for every player.

beams-unit

write out the note value a bare beam grouping counts in, so it survives a change of default.

hoist-breaks

replace matching per-part system/page maps with ONE score-level map.

labels

written headings as a map at the top, or on the bars they head.

exercises

the collection as a header index, or each exercise owning its music from m1.

lyrics

the sung line as a map at the head of the part, or as rows under the music it sings.

sections

the book's sections as a map at the top, or holding their exercises.

expand

one line the rest read -> every reader's part written out (consolidate, backwards).

chapters

a chapter in another key: written out in full, or movement =id = source in Key where one equals an earlier chapter.

page-turns

who turns the page before an exercise: \p in the reader heads, one page before line per exercise, or one line per list of readers.

setup

set-up every movement repeats (credits, title, subtitle, directives, roster): once in the book's head, or written in each movement.

setup-quorum

what setup=shared hoists: what every movement states, or a credit or subtitle most state (the rest say none).

numbers

movement numbers: left out where they equal the movement's place in the book, or written on every movement.

readers

a head holding a reader set's readers: written as the set's name, or spelled out.

consolidate

identical, transposed or octave-translated part bodies -> one line the rest read.

named-spans

a repeated bar range written once and named.

Not available: consolidate writes them inside a head; spans have no door outside one.

durations

how a duration is written: 4Eb or qEb.

key

decide the file's key spelling: no signature, or the one it implies.

chromatic

inside a chromatic run: sharps ascending, flats descending.

octaves

the octave digit: only where the ladder needs it, or pinned on every note.

Not available: the octave ladder runs unconditionally inside emit; needs a Style axis.

preset

a PRESET: one word for a whole selection (see the presets below).

align

pad grid cells so the barlines line up down the page.

bar-blocks

how many bars a part-first block holds: one, eight (a landmark every eight bars), or a whole run.

head-facts

a movement's short head facts (title, subtitle, meter, key, tempo, partial): one a line, or together on the movement's first line.

lists

short lists (a roster, a reader set, page before readers): standard (roster one a line, the rest on one line), all on one line, or one entry a line.

strip-dev-text

remove header text that is dev jargon, never a name or a real subtitle.

strip-comments

remove every // comment, so a score can be made comment-free by the tool.

jargon-lint

report (never rewrite) student-facing text carrying internal jargon.

Presets

The named-spans entry being marked coming does not mean named reuse is missing: consolidate already writes named ranges inside shared reader heads. Write a named exercise.
