I would have a very tiny edit for the documentation.
It's a very small detail and normal users of lilypond will laugh
at me, but I think it's useful for newbies (like me).
Notation Reference, 1.3.3, section "Arpeggio":
This is the second example:
<c e g c>2\arpeggio
\arpeggioArrowUp
<c e g c>2\arpeggio
\arpeggioArrowDown
<c e g c>2\arpeggio
\arpeggioNormal
<c e g c>2\arpeggio
I think a newbie can't see immediately the four parts.
So I would write something like this:
<c e g c>2\arpeggio
\arpeggioArrowUp <c e g c>2\arpeggio
\arpeggioArrowDown <c e g c>2\arpeggio
\arpeggioNormal <c e g c>2\arpeggio
This way the structure is much more clear.
I'm not happy about placing the predefs on the same line
as the notes, but I take your point. Instead, I've placed a
blank line between the several chords, like this:
<c e g c>2\arpeggio
\arpeggioArrowUp
<c e g c>2\arpeggio
\arpeggioArrowDown
<c e g c>2\arpeggio
\arpeggioNormal
<c e g c>2\arpeggio
which I think makes the separation equally clear.
I've done the same for the following example too.
Thanks for the comment!
