Re: Reorganization of Docs

I agree with Graham.  \displayLilyMusic has nothing to
do with the internal representation of music.  It simply
shows the effect of \transpose.

Are you thinking of \displayMusic maybe, which is already in
NR 6?

Uhhh -- Yep.  LM, NR, it's all the same thing after a late night ;)

Yeah, I'm talking about the NR.

How does the example in 3.3.4. show that it's useful for non-programming
stuff?  What's the use of it?

And why does it fit with output?  It has nothing to do with program output
-- it's just part of the console output.

I don't see the point of NR 3.3.4. -- it just seems to be a placeholder for
displayLilyMusic.  I think a better place for it is in NR 6.  But I'm open
to being convinced otherwise.

Once I get NR6 reworked, I'll post it for review.

Thanks,

Carl
