-HINTS FOR STYLE
-
-* Try not to use punctuation between introductocing sentence and
-display material (verbatim, music, example code).
-* don't refer to LilyPond in the text. The reader knows what the
-manual is about
-
-* if you do, capitalization is LilyPond.
-
-* don't explicitly refer to the reader/user. There is no one else
-besides the reader and the writer.
+@ifhtml
+This document is also available as a
+@uref{source/Documentation/user/lilypond.pdf,PDF}.
+@end ifhtml
-* don't use abbreviations (don't, won't, etc.)
-* avoid fluff (``Notice that,'' ``as you can see,'' ``Currently,'')
+@c This produces the unified index
+@syncodeindex fn cp
+@syncodeindex vr cp
-* avoid long stretches of input code. Noone is go to read them in
-print. Instead refer to an example input file (@inputfileref), these
-are clickable in HTML.
+@documentlanguage en
+@documentencoding utf-8
-* abbrevs in caps, e.g. HTML, DVI, MIDI, etc.
