Re: [PATCH:] Doc: adding palm mute to fretted-strings.itely

[Graham Percival]

Thanks, applied.

That said, are you certain that you didn't screw up the \\relative
line?  The notes look awfully low, but I'm not a guitarist so I could
be wrong.

Also, we generally try to keep the output down to one line.  Does the
second bar really add anything to the example?  Could you condense the
example down to 3 bars instead of 4?

I'm not too fussed since this is just in NR 2.4 so only guitarists
will be looking at it, but you might want to double-check these
things.

Cheers,
- Graham
