Thanks. The list is so helpful. I eventually find most of the answers I'm 
looking for in the documentation but the list is a time and 
frustration-saver.

I'm not a power user even though I've been using Lilypond for quite a 
while, mainly because I don't use it that often, and I usually do pretty 
conventional instrumental parts.
One thing I notice about LP is that there is often several different ways 
to do a thing, but when you need to combine it with some other thing, you 
can only use one of the options for the first thing, but you don't know 
that until you try to do the second thing.

Cheers,

Tim
