When I haven't commented on something, it means I took your suggestion.

However, I want to provide a hint about how lilypond processes pitches, by making a reference to normal computer usage: data input, computation, result output. > On page 6 -- "Known issues and warnings" -- "There are no generally > accepted standards for denoting three-quarter flats ..."

I'm not certain about this, but the "accidental" text is more general and covers us more, so I took it. :) > Same page, header of section 1.1.2 -- Should be "Changing pitches" to > parallel the headers of the other subsections. I want to emphasize that transposition affects more than one pitch. I'm not totally against changing the section name this way, but I'd want more discussion first. > Same page, "Transpose" section -- a technical question about the > \transpose syntax: are frompitch and topitch relative or absolute? > Would it be useful to include that information? Absolute. I can't see it making a huge difference, but I added it. > On page 10, first paragraph -- In that case, "Double > accidentals ..." What is this sentence quoting? Perhaps it should > just be integrated into the sentence. It's explaining the rules for a minimum number of accidentals. I agree that the quotes are a bit weird... anyway, since this is a selected snippet, it's not my department. > Ditto, in line 4 (a comment) of the Scheme code -- "alteration, a, in > quarter-tone [hyphenated] ..." Ditto, not my department. Could you fix these in LSR?
