Fair enough, but my brain takes things up rather slower than it did when I was learning computing (which included LISP) in the 1960s. Curiosity, yes, but I find the Internals Reference manual rather heavy going. With all the cross-references, you really need either a book (expensive to print it out!) which you can mark up or a way of displaying 3 or 4 pages at once on a terminal. -- Sent from: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/User-f3.html _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
