Now that the fretboard context is relatively mature, I believe the fret-diagram markup is no longer needed.
As a reminder, the fret-diagram markup allows the user to specify a number of characteristics in the markup definition string, such as the number of strings, the number of frets, the size, etc. These same characteristics can be set by the fret-diagram-details property of TextScript for markups and of FretBoard for FretBoards. I believe that it makes the best sense to separate the presentation from the content. The content for a fret diagram is a series of (string, fret, finger triplets). We have the fret-diagram-terse interface, which allows the specification of (string, fret, finger) triplets in a compact, easy-to-type, and easy-to-read form. We also have the fret-diagram-verbose interface, which has the (string, fret, finger) triplets as Scheme lists and hence is very convenient for program creation. I'd like to deprecate the fret-diagram interface, as it is no longer needed for its original use and is cluttering up the code. What is the process by which we deprecate syntax?
