+HINTS FOR STYLE
+
+* don't refer to LilyPond in the text. The reader knows what the
+manual is about
+
+* if you do, capitalization is LilyPond.
+
+
+* don't explicitly refer to the reader/user. There is no one else
+besides the reader and the writer.
+
+* don't use abbreviations (don't, won't, etc.)
+
+* avoid fluff (``Notice that,'' ``as you can see,'' ``Currently,'')
+
+* avoid long stretches of input code. Noone is go to read them in
+print. Instead refer to an example input file (@inputfileref), these
+are clickable in HTML.
+
+* abbrevs in caps, e.g. HTML, DVI, MIDI, etc.
