I did read the documentation before posting.  My documentation was 
useless on this point.  It didn't explain the syntax, but merely cited 
an example with a link to a file that was missing 
(input/test/bar-number-regular-interval.ly).  I went to the on-line 
docs, which is where I got the syntax cited above.  I see now that the 
online docs are for version 1.6.12.  They should be replaced by the 
latest docs, or at least deleted so people don't get confused.

So...

How do I turn off bar numbers, or set them to once-every-N-bars?  I'm 
using version 2.8.8.

Thanks,
