+The calculation of the position within a measure must take into
+account all the scaling factors applied to the notes within that
+measure and any fractional carry-out from earlier measures. This
+calculation is carried out using rational numbers. If an intermediate
+numerator or denominator in that calculation exceeds 2^30 the
+execution and typesetting will stop at that point without indicating
+an error.

-In most instances, automatic beams will end at the end of a beat.
-The ending points for beats are determined by the context properties
-@code{baseMoment} and @code{beatStructure}. @code{beatStructure}
-is a scheme list that defines the length of each beat in the measure
-in units of @code{baseMoment}. By default, @code{baseMoment} is
-one over the denominator of the time signature. By default,
-each unit of length @code{baseMoment} is a single beat.
+When @code{beamExceptions} is set to @code{#'()}, either due to an
+explicit setting or because no @code{beamExceptions} rules are defined
+internally for the time signature in force, the ending points for
+beams are on beats as specified by the context properties

+units of @code{baseMoment}. By default, @code{baseMoment} is one
+over the denominator of the time signature. By default, each unit of
+length @code{baseMoment} is a single beat.
