This applies to the 2.3 / 2.4 docs as well, but there's some question 
about indenting.  I'm looking into it and will fix the docs.  See the 
docs for 2.4.0 or possibly 2.4.1 (when they're released).

possible error in lilypond-book documentation: indent and noindent

2004-10-25 Thread Ben Crowell 
I think the following in the lilypond 2.2 documentation for lilypond-book may not be
correct:

  indent=size\unit
sets indentation of the first music system to size, where unit = cm, mm, in, or 
pt. This
option affects LilyPond, not the text layout. For single-line fragments, the 
default is to
use no indentation.
  [snip]
  noindent
sets indentation of the first music system to zero. This option affects LilyPond, 
not the text layout.

This seems to imply that the noindent option would be useless, at least for one-line
fragments, since the default is no indentation. Experiments seem to show that the 
default
indentation is nonzero, both for single-line fragments and for multi-line fragments.
There is a change when I switch from no options at all to using the noindent option.

Then again, I may simply be misinterpreting the manual, or misinterpreting my own
experiments.
