Yes that's maybe the best option, I'll do that. It's just that we
list all program names at top level, and `lilypond' is the name of a
program too...
Right. So, the rule in my mind is not "all programs", it's "all
programs that are not also manual names" :).

How about simply not including that entry, and just have the top-level
entry? After all, there's no point in having it if it goes to the wrong
place.
I removed the "dvips" entry leading to "dvips invocation" fr

I was searching the documentation a bit for a feature which draws a
rectangle around the certain note head (or streched around 2 notes when
punctuated over the bar). We use this kind of arrangement, to mark a
note that is the highest in the line (the melody climax) in our

Han-Wen,
It wouldn't hurt. But that's not really what I'm approaching. My point wasn't
so much that the code needs to be cleaned up, but that there should be a web
page / document / something that a developer can refer to to know where to look.
In this example, I couldn't immendiately find VIRT

Here is a discussion that explains the difference, and perhaps why in
Lilypond there should be a distinction made between sus2, add2, and
add9.

Doug,
I've also been trying to get involved with a new feature, and spent a
lot of hours trying to understand code just to answer these types of
questions. I'd like to see such a reference as well.
I'd be willing to dump whatever knowledge I have into the Lilypond
Architecture Manual (LAR?), but

I can imagine that.
Also, I must admit I learned as much Scheme as I needed to implement

I don't think the "Structure and Interpretation of
Computer Programs" is a particularly good place to learn
Scheme.And I don't agree that it's as good a book
as many people think it is.
About a year ago, I decided to learn Scheme in order to understand
more about Lilypond.SICP was widely

All,
I've recently gotten involved in the lilypond cause (2 bug fixes submitted, a
couple of features underway). My problem is I don't have a firm understanding
of how everything comes together. I've read through the Programmer's Reference
(PR), but it isn't what I'm looking for.

Thanks. I can access it again, too.

I have quite a lot of lilypond source that I did back in the
1.3 and 1.6.6 days. I have almost nothing that convert-ly will
process, since it usually produces errors like those below.
(By the way, this is lilypond 2.1.0, running on a Debian woody
system with some later versions of, e.g., guile.)
