    is now mature enough to produce LilyPond documentation with syntax B/W
    highlighting of LilyPond code in PDF output.[*] You can find the
    Learning Manual as an example at

This is beautiful!  I have not been a big fan of syntax highlighting, but I 
have kept my opinions to myself.

I believe that these pdf documents are a significant improvement.  I love them.

I do not see the need to use the syntax highlighting in the text references.  
In fact, I think the syntax highlighting in the text references would get in 
the way.   I would prefer to just leave the highlighting in the code examples.

Thanks,

Carl
