I appear to be at "dot-column-note-collision.ly", if that means anything...

make doc

Yeah... well... I'd really like to help, but
(1) I need/want to work on the things that I need done for my own scores (e.g., the MetronomeMark issues, Slur improvements) which mostly apparently require compilation; and,
(2) you wanted me to do this one-line doc fix, which apparently requires 8+ hours of my time just to get to the point where I can *start* to fix the one doc line.

I'm not blaming you personally, of course, but... #$%@(#*$&ing MAO!!

Kieren.
