You state: "The initialization of LilyPond is done in a number of files that

I would like to know what files are included. They contain default settings
-- often useful and more reliably correct that the reference document.
Certainly in correct form.

Take a look at ly/init.ly ; it branches out into a number of other files. On a
unix installation, it would also be found in
/usr/{maybe local}/share/lilypond/VERSION/ly/

Graham -

Are you listening? Mats' information on \include should find a place in the
documentation.

I'm always willing.  However, note
http://lilypond.org/web/devel/participating/documentation-adding

This also applies to all the other emails you've said "this should be included in the documentation". Whenever there's an interesting email, I put it in a collection with other interesting emails. When time permits (ie generally once a month), I go through those interesting emails looking for stuff to add to the docs. It would greatly speed up this process if somebody else looked through the interesting emails, figured out what sentence(s) to add to which
place(s) in the documentation, and sent me the result.

If somebody suggests some exact changes for the docs, I will almost certainly implement them (or ask for changes) within 72 hours. If somebody just says "this stuff should be in the docs", it could take me a month or more before it
gets done.
