Hi Trevor Daniels,

Checking out the 2.11 lilypond learning manual, thanks for the link!

I was sticking with the .pdf manual currently which downloaded from 
lilypond.org, the stable version's manual.

I admit the current manual is quite hard to follow for me. But I still 
sticked to it and go hard with it. Most of the tutorial inside are very 
useful and professionally arranged.
