I vote for the Essay page. The Glossary page format wastes space at the
bottom left of the screen unless the description and notes are very
wordy (and we don't want them to be). The single column of the Essay
Page allows longer individual text lines which are more comfortable to
read. The Glossary page style feels more like reading short newspaper
columns. It also looks like you've got rid of a superfluous heading
(*Read it Now*) on the Essay style page.
One question regarding all three styles. What is the difference between
following the hyperlink marked _Essay_ on the page and the two HTML
hyperlinks under the heading *Other Formats*? The same question applies
to the Glossary and Notations Style pages.
Cheers,
Ian

I much prefer the Glossary page. It is much clearer. The space on the
left will accommodate a longer description easily and the reading
instructions are grouped neatly together on the right.

Ok, for the next 12 hours, what do people think of the format of
the manual pages? I tried a few experimental ones, namely:

http://kainhofer.com/~lilypond/Documentation/Essay.html
The original format looks like this:
