If I may add my 2 cents here... I think we really do need to define the no-space syntax as the "official" syntax, the lyricmode being just an exception (exceptions happen; users can understand that can't they?) As a newbie, I fully understood the thing when I read the Lyrics chapter. I had to compare twice the example with spaces and the example without, but if well axplained, I'm confident that users will get it. The point is: we are all used to the "foo.bar" syntax, in filenames etc. The "foo . bar" syntax looks much more exotic, much more programmer-oriented (don't know if it's Lisp or whatever, but it's a common syntax in some programming language isnt'it?) Therefore I totally agree with Mats on this one. P.S. isn't there really any possibility to make the foo.Bar syntax work in lyricmode? that would solve the problem for good, wouldn't it? But I guess there isn't... Valentin _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
