musical phrasing. A tie is just a way of extending a note
duration, similar to the augmentation dot.}
-A tie is entered using the tilde symbol (@code{~}).
+A tie is entered by appending a tilde symbol (@code{~}) to the first
+of each pair of notes being tied. This indicates that the note
+should be tied to the following note, which must be at the same pitch.

Ties are used either when the note crosses a bar line, or when
@lilypond[verbatim,quote]
\relative c' {

+ r8 c~ c2 r4 |

When a tie is applied to a chord, all note heads whose pitches
match are connected. When no note heads match, no ties will be
-created. Chords may be partially tied by placing the tie inside
+created. Chords may be partially tied by placing the ties inside
the chord.

-A new bar is never started within a cadenza, even if one or more
-@code{\bar} commands are inserted within it. Therefore, reminder
-accidentals will need to be added manually. See @ref{Accidentals}.
+Inserting a @code{\bar} command within a cadenza does not start a new
+measure, even if a bar line is printed. So any accidentals -- which
+are usually assumed to remain in force until the end of the measure --
+will still be valid after the bar line printed by @code{\bar}. If
+subsequent accidentals should be printed, forced accidentals or
+reminder accidentals need to be inserted manually, see
+@ref{Accidentals}.

Additionally, a bar line can be printed as a simple tick:
@lilypond[quote,relative=1,verbatim]
-f1 \bar "'"
+f1 \bar "'" g1
@end lilypond
However, as such ticks are typically used in Gregorian chant, it is
preferable to use @code{\divisioMinima} there instead, described in
@funindex |
-@funindex pipeSymbol
+@funindex "|"
It is also possible to redefine the action taken when a bar check
or pipe symbol, @code{|}, is encountered in the input, so that
it does something other than a bar check. This is done by
-assigning a music expression to @code{pipeSymbol}.
+assigning a music expression to @code{"|"}.
In the following example @code{|} is set to insert a double bar
line wherever it appears in the input, rather than checking
for end of bar.

-pipeSymbol = \bar "||"
+"|" = \bar "||"
