Ouch. It should be at http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/usage-big-page.html#relocation but it's missing! The same for http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/usage.pdf which misses the whole section on relocation. This means that the HTML files on lilypond.org are not reflecting 2.19.84 — I've added the documentation for relocation with commit 7200d7365be more than a year ago... This is a serious problem IMHO. > OMG this is documented? I wish I’d known all this weeks ago when I > was writing the Mac Makefile! Sorry for that.

Again: Patches are highly welcomed :-) Werner
