-The lines of a staff (pl. staves) are produced by a @code{staff symbol}

-LilyPond ensures that all music is printed on staff lines so if you just
-type in some notes, the staff symbol is added automatically to the output.
-This is just a shortcut to make the program usage more easy, but in most
-cases where you want to print more complex music on more than on staff
-it is better to create the staff explicitly at the beginning of your

+The lines of a staff (pl. staves) are produced by the @code{staff symbol}
+layout object. Staves are created with the @code{\new} or
+@code{\context} commands. For an explanation on these commands,
+see @ref{Creating contexts}.
-With the command @code{\new Staff @{ ... @}} you actually call a new
-Staff context that has already everything set up to the default
-engraving rules. @ref{Creating contexts} explains how different contexts
-are called.

+\relative c'' {

+@code{DrumStaff} creates a five line staff set up for a typical drum set.

+be set using the @code{drummode}. See @ref{Percussion staves}.

+@code{RhythmicStaff} can be used to show the rhythm of some music. The

+is preserved. See @ref{Showing melody rhythms}.
