If you like using font-lock, you can also add this to your F<.emacs>:
(setq font-lock-maximum-decoration t)
(setq c++-font-lock-keywords-3

-=head2 CLASSNAMES (2)
-A lot of classes in GNU LilyPond start with 'P', this is to distinguish
-certain parts of GNU LilyPond: the P stands for Printer, and the P-classes
-are supposed to be more lowlevel than the others. Example:
-
-Staff uses PStaff, PScore and PCol to do the typesetting of
-symbols. Staff is the "brains" for PStaff
-
-NB: in PCursor (which is part of the library) P stands for PointerCursor

+For some tasks, some scripts are supplied, notably creating patches, a

+Use them.
