This sort of thing is great. There's a lot of potential to implement
higher-level convenience stuff that LilyPond currently lacks, but that
doesn't need to be written into the core.

Thanks for the tip. You should mention this list on
http://lilypond.org/web/documentation.html
where you should also change "Bugreports" to "Bug reports".

As well as the cumulative 2.0->2.1 release notes, it would be very helpful
to have per-release release notes, so one can see what has changed between
individual releases.
Also, it seems the 2.0->2.1 release notes is getting a bit inconsistent:

If you can give me some pointers, I will. Since I don't know Python,
barely know C++ (but I know C very well) nor Scheme (but I know elisp
quite well) I may be a bit
I've just been entering lyrics for a song, and I've come up with a puzzle:
what is the point of -- and __ ? As far as I can see, there should be a --
between every pair of syllables in a word, and a __ at the end of every
word. Hyphen (-) at the end of a syllable is unnecessary AFAICS.

But that would have confused me when I typeset a short score without a

I can't find any evidence that LilyPond supports source \specials for the
ability to click on a place in a DVI score and be taken to the source (as
with LaTeX) but it seems to me this ought to be fairly straightforward to
implement. Is there any interest in this?

I'm happy with the default as it fits the common case. I'd just it to be
documented (as otherwise the docs are a bit confusing).

If I find any more, I'll correct them. Since I'm currently getting to
grips with LilyPond as a new user with a big score, I'm not being
systematic, but just fixing things that annoy me.
