-The property @code{measureLength} determines where bar lines
-should be inserted and, with @code{beatLength} and
-@code{beatGrouping}, how automatic beams should be generated
-for beam durations and time signatures for which no beam-ending
-rules are defined. This example shows several ways of controlling
-beaming by setting these properties. The explanations are shown
-as comments in the code.
