Re: Documentation suggestions.

I've now consolidated the various replies to my original suggestions - sorry it's been so long. Unfortunately I spent far too much time fighting VirtualBox and Linux without as much success as I'd like. So here are my - fairly small- documentation ideas. Sorry I couldn't make formal patches but

Is the CG out of date?

I'm trying to work out how to run LilyDev in VirtualBox on a Windows system., but the information in section 2.1 of the CG seems to be inaccurate, and I suspect it's a bit out of date. Under "Installing LilyDev in VirtualBox" the filename is given as lilydev-vm-fedora-VERSION.raw but the downlo

A suggestion: add \rf to built-in dynamics

I suggest that \rf (for rinforzando) be added to the built-in dynamic list. I suggested this on the users list, and got two replies, one fairly positive, one negative. My rationale is that it's accepted as a synonym of rfz, and was used as such by both Beethoven (who also used rfz and rinf.) an

Documentation suggestions.

I originally sent this to the bug mailing list. Thomas Morley suggests that it would be better on this list. As an occasional and fairly new Lilypond user I've found that the documentation is occasionally obscure or misleading. I've made a few suggestions below. I've used the 2.19.83 document
