No, please keep these coming! They're great. :)
BTW, I respond to each email individually so that somebody searching
the mailist can see that the issue has been closed. It's a bit
redundant, but I think it's worth it.
2.7.38, section 8.2.8, dealing with different editions and the \tag
command:
Toward the bottom of the section (p. 196 of the PDF), right above "See
Also", it
says: "The argument of the \tag command should be a symbol." I just
successfully
used \tag with \override commands, and I read "symbol" as referring to
something
that actually prints on the output page.
E.g., the following works and I didn't think it should, based on the
docs:
optSlur = \tag #'withSlur { \once \override Slur #'transparent = ##t }
Hmm. "symbol" is either an old term left over from an earlier version
of \tag, or it has some special meaning in lilypond architecture.
Han-Wen, is it correct to write:
The argument of the \tag command should be a music expression.
?
