I'd forgotten John Mandereau is currently reviewing Chapter 4 of the LM
so perhaps you could begin with Chapters 1-3 and send them to me
a file at a time.  If John is still reviewing Chapter 4 when you get to it
then send that file (tweaks.itely) direct to John so he can incorporate
it.  If he's finished by then you can send that to me too.

The LM is not organised by LilyPond notation topic like the NR; it is
organised rather by concept, with various bits of notation used as examples.
So it is very difficult to find a particular bit of notation, which you 
remember
seeing earlier, by simply looking at the TOC.  Hence the importance of
good and comprehensive indexing - that's why I asked you to do it.
Thanks for the help!
