-
-Many examples in the tutorial omitted a @code{\relative c'' @{
-... @}} around the printed example, as we saw in
-@ref{How to read the tutorial}.
-
-In the rest of the manual, we are much more lax about the printed
-examples: sometimes they may have omitted a @code{\relative c'' @{
-... @}}, but other times a different initial pitch may be used
-(such as @code{c'} or @code{c,,}), and in some cases the whole
-example is in absolute note mode! However, ambiguities like this
-only exist where the pitches are not important. In any example
-where the pitch matters, we have explicitly stated
-@code{\relative} or absolute-mode @code{@{ @}}.
-
-If you are still confused about the exact LilyPond input that was
-used in an example, read the HTML version (if you are not already
-doing so) and click on the picture of the music. This will
-display the exact input that LilyPond used to generate this
-manual.
