Re: restrainOpenStrings

[BB]

If one interprets the text of the manual the line
\set TabStaff.restrainOpenStrings = ##t
powers up the not really perfect working
\set TabStaff.minimumFret = #1
to work as one would expect by simply interpreting the text implies.

But that does not depreciate the basic question about the logik. One 
might extend the logik question  to ask why \set TabStaff.minimumFret = 
#1 does not do what one would expect spontaneous from the statement. The 
question why \set TabStaff.restrainOpenStrings = ##t does not do what 
one would expect spontaneous  from the statement.

Anyway, as I just pointed out - I can live with this contradictories. So 
simply let me annul my question.

Thanks.
