Did you search for "Comment" in the index of the Tutorial?
However, you are right that it seems to be missing in the NR,
where it also should be included for completeness.

Maybe I'm still sleepy (it's early), but I'm not finding the
section on comments in the new documentation. Specifically,
something that deals with
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.10/Documentation/user/lilypond/Working-on-text-files#Working-on-text-files
but in the documentation for 2.11. I realise is hasn't changed, but
since I only ever download the current docs, it's just slightly
more of a hassle to have to go to the website for it. (I just did a
search for the word "comment" both in the pdf I downloaded and the
"all in one big page" version of the 2.11 documentation).

Learning manual. Gotcha. Just out of curiosity, why are these split
up? It took a while for me to figure out which of the various manuals
had the information I usually need, but it seems to me that in
separating out different sections from what was "everything about
lilypond" there are various manuals that deal with specific topics
but, and I realise this is a goal of the GDP, the titles don't always
communicate the contents of the manual to me.
For example, what is the difference between a "user manual" and a
"learning manual"? Naturally and user would need to learn how to use
the program, so I would assume that the two would be one and the same.
To the same end, "program usage" and "user manual", to my brain, would
both tell the user how to use the program. While I appreciate the
completeness of the new documentation, having to search three
different manuals, while the older documentation keeps everything in
one place, makes life a bit difficult, especially for someone who only
pulls out lilypond to engrave a score every couple of weeks. I don't
really use the program on a daily basis except when I have a project
due.
Sorry, just some thoughts while I was writing the email. Learning
manual. I'll download that now.
