LilyPond 2.1.11 released

[Han-Wen Nienhuys]

2.1.11 is out  -- have fun!


   * Objects in the output can now be documented: the following fragment
     boxes the note head, and adds the text "heads or tails?" three
     spaces below the box.

                 \context Voice \applyoutput #(add-balloon-text
                                             'NoteHead "heads, or tails?"
                                             '(0 . -3))
          
          
                 c8

   * Default staff sizes are now scalable. There are two new mechanisms
     for setting staff sizes. Both are demonstrated in this fragment:

            #(set-staff-size 15)
            \paper {
              #(paper-set-staff-size (* 15 pt))
            }

     Both have  the same effect on the global layout  of a piece.
     Similarly, the paper size may be changed as follows

            #(set-paper-size "a4")

   *    Warnings for bar check errors are more cleverly printed.  This
     makes `barCheckSynchronize' superfluous, so it is now switched off
     by default.

     Warning: this will cause problems in scores that use bar checks to
     shorten measures.

   *  The black note head was made a little rounder, which causes a less
     frantic graphic impression.





PS. Those that are in the vicinity of Amsterdam, may wish to go the
Concertgebouw, either tonight or monday evening, to see your Favorite
LilyPond Hacker blasting and cracking notes in Shostakovich' Symphony no. 4.
