Hi Werner,
In the NR, most such functions have its argument starting with `#`, for example ``` \ottava #-2 ``` Are there still cases where `#` is mandatory for numbers? Otherwise the documentation could be updated to remove all `#`.
Yes, there are: In markup, for example. \markup \fontsize 3 Hi is still illegal.I'm all for removing the # escape (and string quotes and/or #' for symbols) in the documentation where it's possible; my own LilyPond style feels much more relaxed since I found out how many of those I can omit.
\version "2.23.10" \removeWithTag dyn \new Staff = upper { \tag dyn <>\mf \ottava -1 a4_boringly }But of course there's always the danger of beginners tripping up on this because they do not recognise the situations where #/'/"" are still needed.
