Hi, All -
I’m currently working on
rewriting Repeats in the Notation Reference, and I
don’t care for the existing
structure.
Currently, it looks like this:
1.4 Repeats
1.4.1 Writing repeats
1.4.2 Other repeats
1.4.2.1 Tremolo repeats
1.4.2.2
Measure repeats
However, since Repeat syntax discusses the
common syntax for all the repeats, it would seem to make more sense to
take it out of the section dealing with normal. I’d like to suggest:
1.4
Repeats
1.4.1 Repeat syntax
1.4.2 Writing repeats
It might also make sense to split 1.4.1.1 into
1.4.1.1 Repeat syntax, followed by 1.4.1.2 Types of repeats supported.
Comments, please?

This looks like it needs an overhaul. I'd suggest you went for:
- Writing Repeats
- Types of Repeat Supported
(following types of repeat are supported and what
they mean, don't describe how this is implemented in the syntax yet)
- Section repeats - covering several bars/measures
( i.e. ||: | | | | | :|| )
- Simple section repeats
- Section repeats with varying endings
- One-and two bar/measure repeats
(repeating a single bar/measure)
(repeating a two-bar phrase)
- Single-note repeats/measure
(tremolos)
- Manual repeats to save typing
(no special notation produced, just the sequence of notes printed
however many times)
- Syntax of repeat command
(structure this like the previous section, but show what you code with
\repeat to achieve this, and the output)
- Section repeats - covering several bars/measures
- Simple section repeats
- Section repeats with varying endings
- One-and two bar/measure repeats
(repeating a single bar/measure)
(repeating a two-bar phrase)
- Single-note repeats/measure
(tremolos)
- Manual repeats to save typing
(no special notation produced, just the sequence of notes printed
however many times)
(Please note I couldn't reproduce the structured headings in my mail
client, but I meain 1.4 Writing Repeats, 1.4.1 Types of Repeats
Supported, 1.4.1.1 Section Repeats etc.)
Cheers,
Ian Hulin
