how to print scores with more than one staff, and how to add tempo
@notation{Staves} (singular: @notation{staff}) are created with
the @code{\new} or @code{\context} commands. For details, see
-@ref{Creating contexts}.
+@ref{Creating and referencing contexts}.
The basic staff context is @code{Staff}:
New single staff contexts may be defined. For details, see

+The lines of a staff belong to the @code{StaffSymbol} grob (including

-Ledger line thickness can be set independently of staff line
-thickness. In the example the two numbers are factors multiplying
-the staff line thickness and the staff line spacing. The two
-contributions are added to give the ledger line thickness.
+The position of each staff line can also be altered. A list of
+numbers sets each line's position. @code{0}@tie{}corresponds to the normal
+center line, and the normal line positions are
+@code{(-4@tie{}-2@tie{}0@tie{}2@tie{}4)}. A single staff line is
+printed for every value entered so that the number of staff lines, as
+well as their position, can be changed with a single override.

Removing @code{Staff_symbol_engraver} also hides bar lines. If
bar line visibility is forced, formatting errors may occur. In
this case, use the following overrides instead of removing the
engraver:
@example
-\override StaffSymbol #'stencil = ##f
-\override NoteHead #'no-ledgers = ##t
+\omit StaffSymbol
+\override NoteHead.no-ledgers = ##t
