Is "\tempo 60" without a note duration a typo or is it a proposal for new
syntax? It doesn't currently work for me here:
\score {
\new Staff {
\tempo 60
\time 6/8
c'4. 4.
}
\layout {}
\midi {}
}
In my scores that use 6/8, I've already specified the beat as "4.", e.g.
\time 6/8
\tempo 4. = 64
so I don't understand why it would be important to have an alternative that is
interpreted the same way.
