If I understand it correctly, it is relative in the order read rather than the order to be output. This makes it easier to type and human-read, and also far easier to make a utility external to lilypond which would convert relative to absolute, so I like it. daveA -- Br`er Fox told Br`er Rabbit that the Tar Baby had dissed him, and Fox made a dummy out of tar and put him in Rabbit's path. When the Tar Baby failed to return a civil greeting, Rabbit punched him with a right, a left, both feet and butted him with his forehead. Along came Br`er Fox who saw that he was thoroughly "stuck up". Br`er Fox is much smarter than Br`er Rabbit, and in spite of all Rabbit's pleas for help, no one is going to unstick him and throw him in the briar patch, so now Br`er Fox is liesurely eating Rabbit's liver.
