[Lilypond-auto] Issue 2895 in lilypond: Enhancement request for web page

New issue 2895 by address@hidden: Enhancement request for web page http://lilypond.org/manuals.html 
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2895

Reported by Jim Long:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2012-10/msg00108.html

Recently and historically, several users have commented that the web page at
reference could be enhanced by having conspicuous links to downloadable PDF
versions of the lilypond documentation.
The following patches to http://lilypond.org/manuals.html illustrate a design 
mock-up of how the manuals.html page might look after
For convenience, one may wish to apply the second patch also, which specifies a base URL so that a local mock-up copy of manuals.html can correctly link to the 
rest of the http://lilypond.org/ web site.
I realize that this HTML is not the source document from which manuals.html is 
created, but the intent here is only to illustrate a design suggestion.

Respectfully submitted,

Jim
