Re: doc help: 11.2.1

[Mats Bengtsson]

Nicolas, could you please give some expert comments on what
I wrote in Documentation/user/programming-interface.itely
in the latest CVS. I keep getting confused on these issues.
Especially since I noticed by accident today that
(markup #:line (#:finger "1 "  "A" ))
seems to behave exactly the same as
(markup #:finger "1 "  "A" )
so the line command at the top level of the markup is implicit even
when you use the Scheme syntax (markup ...) not only in \markup{...}.
