shape in 2.16.2

[Luca Danieli]

I really like Lilypond, so congrats to everybody! But some errors are very frustrating.

Just a few questions:

1) does the function shape (for slurs) work in the version 2.16.2?

2) the fantastic references on the website are constantly updated to the last version?

(I often get problems and errors by simply copying and pasting example codes from the website.)
