Manual correction?

In the section on "An orchestral part" in the reference manual, hornNotes is called in the code with
\notes \transpose c' f \hornNotes

and referenced in the text as follows:

"The code \transpose f c' indicates that the argument, being \hornNotes, should be transposed by a fifth downwards: sounding f is denoted by notated c', which corresponds with tuning of a normal French Horn in F. The transposition can be seen in the following output:"

This cognative dissonance is present in the manuals for 1.8 and 2.0.

Fortunately, the section in the notation manual on Transpose is correct.
