@ignore

HINTS

* only show verbatim input for syntax/input changes

* try to be as brief possible in those cases

* don't try to provide real-world examples, they often get too big,
which scares away people.

* Write complete sentences.

* only show user-visible changes.

@item Intermediate .ps files which are created by LilyPond
during compilation are now deleted by default.  To keep them,
add the line
@example
#(ly:set-option 'delete-intermediate-files #f)
@end example
to your input files.

@item Dashed and dotted slurs, phrasing slurs, and ties
have been made variable thickness, and
partially dashed slurs are now available:
@lilypond[quote]
\relative c'' {
  \slurDashed
    c4( d e f) |
  \slurDotted
    g4( f e d) |
  \slurHalfDashed
    c4( d e f)
}
@end lilypond
   

@item An eyeglasses markup was added, incidating strongly to look at the 
conductor for instructions:
@lilypond[quote]
\relative c'' {
  \mark \markup {\eyeglasses}
  c4_\markup{\eyeglasses}
}
@end lilypond

@item
A snap-pizzicato (also known as Bartok-pizzicato) articulation was added:
@lilypond[quote]
\relative c'' {
  c\snappizzicato
}
@end lilypond

@item
Tuplet number formatting functions are now available to print other fractions and to add notes to the number or fraction:
@lilypond[quote]
\relative c'' {
  \once \override TupletNumber #'text = #(tuplet-number::non-default-tuplet-denominator-text 7)
  \times 2/3  { c4. c4. c4. c4. } % begin verbatim

  \once \override TupletNumber #'text = #(tuplet-number::non-default-tuplet-fraction-text 12 7)
  \times 2/3  { c4. c4. c4. c4. }
  \once \override TupletNumber #'text = #(tuplet-number::append-note-wrapper (tuplet-number::non-default-tuplet-fraction-text 12 7) "8")
  \times 2/3  { c4. c4. c4. c4. }

  \once \override TupletNumber #'text = #(tuplet-number::append-note-wrapper tuplet-number::calc-denominator-text "4")
  \times 2/3  { c8 c8 c8 c8 c8 c8 }
  \once \override TupletNumber #'text = #(tuplet-number::append-note-wrapper tuplet-number::calc-fraction-text "4")
  \times 2/3  { c8 c8 c8 c8 c8 c8 }

  \once \override TupletNumber #'text = #(tuplet-number::fraction-with-notes "4." "8")
  \times 2/3  { c4. c4. c4. c4. }
  \once \override TupletNumber #'text = #(tuplet-number::non-default-fraction-with-notes 12 "8" 4 "4")
  \times 2/3  { c4. c4. c4. c4. }
}

@item
FretBoards now have a chordChanges property to keep repeated FretBoard objects
from being typeset.
