>> than teaching absolute entry only to ditch it a few pages later.
I wasn't thinking of a few pages. More like a couple more examples
which do nothing more with pitches than the first one days (so not
digging a deeper non-\relative hole), but rather show a few other
completely basic things, like time signatures and clefs and key signatures.
I think that \relative would be better explained by a picture with
arrowed explanations instead of the lengthy text description beginning
with "Relative mode can be confusing initially".
A gentler introduction to \relative would do much ameliorate the issue,
I can certainly agree.
How come i didn't know about them??
Probably for the same reason I didn't: when we go to the web site and
simply click the obvious links, the browser shows the version-dependent
url. So we have no reason to think the version-independent url is
available (and even if we guess it is there and manually change the url,
to think it's supported).
I use the word "redirects" because I don't know what the correct
Redirects is exactly the correct term :).
It is surely possible to make mod_rewrite not change the visible url, or
otherwise arrange for the version-independent url to be shown, if
there's a will for that to be the case ...
best,
k
