By default pitches are assigned to the lowest playing position on the
fret-board (first position). Open strings are automatically preferred.
-If you would like a certain pitch to be played on a specific string
-you can add a string number indication to the pitch name. If you
-define pitch names and string numbers without a chord construct
-(@code{<>}) the string number indications do not appear in traditional
-notation. It is much more comfortable to define the playing position
-by using the value of @code{minimumFret}. The default value for
-minimumFret is 0.
+If you would like a certain pitch to be played on a specific string you
+can add a string number indication to the pitch name. If you don't want
+to have string number indications appear in traditional notation, you
+can override the respective stencil. Usually it will be more
+comfortable to define the playing position by using the value of
+@code{minimumFret}. The default value for minimumFret is 0.

For convenience, you can abbreviate @code{\rightHandFinger} to something
