This is to invite criticism for the "anacrusis" part of the chapter, which I added towards the end.

As a last thing in our little first beginners' chapter, we'll give you the tool for beginning your melodies with an anacrusis or "upbeat".
or "pickup" (common American name)
This is the

\partial

command. If you need, say, a quarter-note anacrusis, you type "quarter note" - "asterisk" - "one" after the commad, in this way:

\partial 4*1
No need for the "*1".  We don't say c4*1 or s4*1.
