The // sign has different meanings at different periods. It's a trill for Purcell, and also Buxtehude (I think) but in early 17th cent. English kbd music there is // and /, often written across the stem, and their meanings are not 100% clear. A + over a note can mean a trill in 17th century Germany, but in lilypond it's called \stopped. Anyway, I can't think of a good clear name for the // ornament. I'll just concentrate on learning the graphic markup commands that Phill point to. David G
