Comment #5 on issue 990 by address@hidden: automatically include property-init.ly in docs
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=990

Many users can't find this file because they don't know where to look; the docs could use better direction towards this. I could discuss that with James (or anybody else) if there's interest in working on that.

I don't fully understand David's suggestions, but it would be nice if we could do something like:

balloonLengthOn = {
\docstring "Makes balloon text occupy spacing so that the next note does not occur until the text is finished."
  \override BalloonTextItem #'extra-spacing-width = #'(0 . 0)
  \override BalloonTextItem #'extra-spacing-height = #'(-inf.0 . +inf.0)
}
or, if necessary,
\definefunc "balloonLengthOn" "Makes ballon text..." {
  \override BalloonTextItem #'extra-spacing-width = #'(0 . 0)
  \override BalloonTextItem #'extra-spacing-height = #'(-inf.0 . +inf.0)
}

and then automagically produce a NR appendix from those docstrings.

My apologies if that's what David was saying.
