Interesting. Nobody who touched that part of the docs, including me, has ever installed lilypond via a package manager. Hopefully Trevor can modify the section accordingly. > I know the snippet documentation is meant to be brief but why not add a > note-name table -- or if not in the documentation, in the snippet source > that you get when you click on the example? We could add this to pitches.itely and world.itely (appropriately split up). Trevor can help you get the documentation source, proofread your texinfo changes, and prepare a patch. Trevor: the actual table goes in pitches.itely (obviously), while we should add a NR 2.9.2 Makam or Turkish or something. I guess that section will only contain a "References for..." subsection, but that's fine.
