Documentation/notation/staff.itely:1022: @cindex quote, voices

don't remove the old ones.
I didn't remove as much as reword for clarity. Else we get into
semantics about (for example) cues vs cue notes (cues means nothing -
snooker cues? 'cue notes' is what they are properly called). Again
'Fragments' is meaningless in an index without some context - which I
added (Fragments, quoting).

That would be better.
Done.

could we keep a definition for \fluteNotes ? again, I'm happy to have

alternately, remove the @example and just go directly into the
@lilypond. That
would be my first instinct, actually, although I can't claim to have
looked at
this in detail.
Done.

Documentation/notation/staff.itely:1072: If the music expression used in
@code{\quoteDuring} contains notes
On 2011/05/11 03:26:40, Keith wrote:
I suggest removing this whole paragraph and @lilypond.
1. The original text was wrong: \quoteDuring does not create another
Voice for
polyphony; instead it adds notes to the existing Voice to make chords.
2. Using \cueDuring, by contrast, *does* add a voice and create a
polyphonic
situation, and in fact I have found that to be useful, but was
discouraged from
trying it because of the old text.
I think we need something, somewhere about this, as it would appear that
this is a nice way to add polyphony - even if it isn't and to be honest
I don't know what the difference is, or the subtlety is lost on me. It
LOOKS like polyphony.
Maybe an appropriate @KNOWNISSUE?

If you do decide to keep this @lilypond, at least make it output
something
sensible.
Kept it in for now until we decide on the last comment.

as the
earlier examples.
(I should have caught this error months ago.)
Done.

Documentation/notation/staff.itely:1120: markups, etc. and is inserted

Not sure what you wanted here, but I have improved this awkward sentence
anyway.
Description:
Doc: NR 1.6.3 - edit eg.s in quoting other voices
Suggestion from Keith O'Hara.
An attempt to give a more realistic example than what was previously
there.
It also helps emphasise that it must be made at the top level but also
that the
order of the \quoteDurings and \addQuotes is not prescribed.
Minor improvements of syntax and I moved around some of the information
to make it flow more easily. Removed unnecessary text (either redundant,
repeated or shown in the example).
