Some sections have been completely rewritten (particularly Octave

- The text in "Octave corrections and checks" is contradictory. First it
says that
"an octave check does not change the pitch", then it says in the
description of octave
checks that "If this is not the case, ... and the octave is corrected".
As far as I can see, the true difference between the two commands is
that the
octave correction is specified as a attribute to the note itself in
the input, whereas
the octave check is a separate "command" to be inserted between notes
in the input.
Both have the same effect of correcting the octave (not the pitch,
right?) if it's wrong.
- In "Transpose", I wonder if the second example is correct or if it
should have
an es major key signature (in the printed output, i.e. a \key c \major
in the
input file), according to normal notation conventions. Since I don't
play any transposing instrument myself, I'm not sure which one is
correct.
Technically, this second example illustrates a "feature", namely that
if you don't
explicitly specify a key signature, then the transposed music won't
have any
key signature either, in contrast to what happens if you explicitly
specify a
key signature.
- The transposing-pitches-with-minimum-accidentals-smart-transpose.ly
LSR example,
included in "Transpose" didn't work, since the internal representation
for
alterations has changed between 2.10 and 2.11. I have just tried to
submit a
2.11 version to LSR, but since it doesn't compile in 2.10, I'm not
sure it
was accepted in the LSR database. I'll send it by email otherwise.
- Instrument transpositions, first sentence: I'm not sure it's the "key"
of the transposing
instrument that should be specified, but I don't know the proper
terminology.
- I have submitted an even more simplified version of the LSR example
Ambiti multiple voices to LSR. The setting of X-offset didn't
influence the
result at all, as far as I could see.
