LilyPond 1.9.1

[Han-Wen Nienhuys]

       "A release a day keeps stability away!"

I'm having my own private little hack-a-thon this week, and today's
result is LilyPond 1.9.1, featuring

   * The `\newcontext' command will create a context with a unique name
     automatically. Hence, for multi-staff scores, it is no longer
     necessary to invent arbitrary context names. For example, a
     two-staff score may be created by

            \simultaneous {
              \newcontext Staff { NOTES FOR 1ST STAFF }
              \newcontext Staff { NOTES FOR 2ND STAFF }
            }

This release also removes code for old ties and old markup texts.

Best fix of all: \relative actually works now.

Enjoy!
