I am sure other more experienced programmers will chime in but having two 'similar' functions \hideNote \hideNotes Is a good idea. Although we do have \time and \times but they do very different things. Also with regard to updating documentation and translations you can read all about that in the Contributor's Guide. http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.15/Documentation/contributor/translating-the-documentation Essentially the translations are handled in a separate branch. Also you cannot just edit snippets like your commit shows, there is a process for this too that needs to be followed. http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.15/Documentation/contributor/adding-and-editing-snippets If you like, for now I can add a tracker issue for you on this and if you send me a git format patch I can post this up on Rietveld (our current method of code verification) for you. Else you can have a go yourself, http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.15/Documentation/contributor-big-page.html#making-patches Regards -- -- James _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
