-@cindex note heads, shape
-
-In shape note head notation, the shape of the note head
-corresponds to the harmonic function of a note in the scale. This
-notation was popular in the 19th century American song books.
-
-Shape note heads can be produced by setting @code{\aikenHeads} or
-@code{\sacredHarpHeads}, depending on the style desired.
-
-@lilypond[verbatim,relative=1,fragment]
- \aikenHeads
- c8 d4 e8 a2 g1
- \sacredHarpHeads
- c8 d4. e8 a2 g1
-@end lilypond
-
-Shapes are determined on the step in the scale, where the base of
-the scale is determined by the @code{\key} command
-
-@funindex \key
-@funindex shapeNoteStyles
-@funindex \aikenHeads
-@funindex \sacredHarpHeads
-
-Shape note heads are implemented through the
-@code{shapeNoteStyles} property. Its value is a vector of
-symbols. The k-th element indicates the style to use for the k-th
-step of the scale. Arbitrary combinations are possible, e.g.
-
-@lilypond[verbatim,relative=1,fragment]
-\set shapeNoteStyles =
- ##(cross triangle fa #f mensural xcircle diamond)

-@node Improvisation
-@unnumberedsubsubsec Improvisation
-
-Improvisation is sometimes denoted with slashed note heads. Such
-note heads can be created by adding a
-@internalsref{Pitch_squash_engraver} to the @internalsref{Voice}
-context. Then, the following command
-
-@example
-\set squashedPosition = #0
-\override NoteHead #'style = #'slash
-@end example
-
-@noindent
-switches on the slashes.
-
-There are shortcuts @code{\improvisationOn} (and an accompanying
-@code{\improvisationOff}) for this command sequence. They are
-used in the following example
-
-@lilypond[verbatim,ragged-right,quote]
-\new Voice \with {
- \consists Pitch_squash_engraver
-} \transpose c c' {
- e8 e g a a16(bes)(a8) g \improvisationOn

-
-@cindex note heads, special
-
-Different noteheads are used by various instruments for various
-meanings -- crosses are used for @q{parlato} with vocalists,
-stopped notes on guitar; diamonds are used for harmonics on string
-instruments, etc. There is a shorthand (@code{\harmonic}) for
-diamond shapes; the other notehead styles are produced by tweaking
-the property
-

-@node Ambitus
-@unnumberedsubsubsec Ambitus
-@cindex ambitus
-
-The term @emph{ambitus} denotes a range of pitches for a given
-voice in a part of music. It may also denote the pitch range that
-a musical instrument is capable of playing. Ambits are printed on
-vocal parts, so performers can easily determine it meets their
-capabilities.
-
-Ambits are denoted at the beginning of a piece near the initial
-clef. The range is graphically specified by two note heads that
-represent the minimum and maximum pitch. To print such ambits,
-add the @internalsref{Ambitus_engraver} to the
-@internalsref{Voice} context, for example,
-
-@example
-\layout @{
- \context @{
- \Voice
- \consists Ambitus_engraver
- @}
-@}
-@end example
-
-This results in the following output
-
-@lilypond[quote,ragged-right]
-\layout {
- \context {
- \Staff
- \consists Ambitus_engraver
- }
-}
-
-\relative \new Staff {
- as'' c e2 cis,2
-}
-@end lilypond
-
-If you have multiple voices in a single staff and you want a
-single ambitus per staff rather than per each voice, add the
-@internalsref{Ambitus_engraver} to the @internalsref{Staff}
-context rather than to the @internalsref{Voice} context. Here is
-an example,
-
-@lilypond[verbatim,ragged-right,quote]
-\new Staff \with {
- \consists "Ambitus_engraver"
-}
-<<
- \new Voice \with {
- \remove "Ambitus_engraver"
- } \relative c'' {
- \override Ambitus #'X-offset = #-1.0
- \voiceOne
- c4 a d e f2
- }
- \new Voice \with {
- \remove "Ambitus_engraver"
- } \relative c' {
- \voiceTwo
- es4 f g as b2
- }
->>
-@end lilypond
-
-@noindent
-This example uses one advanced feature,
-
-@example
-\override Ambitus #'X-offset = #-1.0
-@end example
-
-@noindent
-This code moves the ambitus to the left. The same effect could
-have been achieved with @code{extra-offset}, but then the
-formatting system would not reserve space for the moved object.
