I'm not overly enthusiastic about adding color to the manual: I'm not
certain how it will look in a printed pdf (many people print the docs)

section about color, and the red staff-lines in Ancient notation will
show up as black anyway in print, but I'm worried about adding color
to the main manual.
As you may already have noticed, I added colors according to Kieren's
suggestion
in GIT. Based on my experience from writing research articles, colors in
the
figures is just positive, as long as you make sure that
- No colors are too light so the figure is readable also when printed in
B/W.
- You use also other methods to distinguish between different cases, as
we do
here with the note head shapess, so no information is lost when you
print in B/W.
For this specific case, I expect the printed version to be just as
readable as the
old purely black version, since all the colors are dark enough. For the
on-line
version it's a clear impovement, in my opinion.
