I agree in general, but the point is both forms of the syntax are still valid and so should be documented.
I'm with Graham on this. The extension manual may talk about the equivalence of symbol lists in Scheme and LilyPond, but the whole point of the exercise was to remove a complication.
Furthermore it's only /likely/ to become deprecated; it hasn't yet been deprecated. When it does this paragraph can go. It also contrasts with \tweak - its syntax /has/ changed.
But the difference is not by design but by necessity (\tweak is not implemented in the parser), and it is only a rather new form of \tweak that has changed incompatibly. https://codereview.appspot.com/6852052/ _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
