Re: proofreading tutorial

[Mats Bengtsson]

Thanks for all your ambituous documentation updates!

I've just looked at the first few pages, but have a couple of comments:

- The cut-&-pastable-section of the first example contains lots
 of lines that are just confusing and should never be included
 in a stand-alone .ly file. Maybe it's better to not use the fragment
 option of lilypond-book and recommend the reader to only
 cut the lines after "ly snippet follows" (or whatever it says
 when you don't use the fragment option).

- There's a new paragraph before "to the end of the file".

- In "2.1.1 Compiling a file", there's a typo in "should be also be".

- The instructions for Windows need some polishing. Basically,
 you could more or less the same as on Mac, namely double-click
 the LilyPond icon on the desktop to start a simple text editor.
 I can come back with more details when I have a Windows box
 in front of me.
- In "2.1.1 Compiling a file", footnote 3: "have any tools" -> "have any 
such tools".
