Re: Is there a bug in the way Lilypond handles staccatos?

@Urs, Klaus, and Andrew

Thank you very much!

This makes sense now (I guess Lilypond does not need to be a "programming language" per se and that is where the confusion is). I will add your replies to our Music Blocks discussion thread so that everyone from our team is in the loop about this.

Hi Devin, 

the use of parentheses is somewhat special: 
don't think of them as a pair of parentheses.  :-) 

An opening parenthesis after a note indicates the beginning of a slur, a
closing parenthesis means the end of a slur. 
So, in your second example the slur ends on the c'8 whereas in your first
example the closing parenthesis doesn't follow a note.

Cheers, 
Klaus
