Re: ess-tset in lyrics w/lilypond-book

[Mats Bengtsson]

in connection to the --no-pdf option. Of course, this text is completely
misplaced. I seem to remember that I formulated these sentences several
years ago, but I cannot understand why they are placed there and will
move them to the section on lilypond-book.
