Lilypond 1.9.3 released

Lilypond 1.9.3 is out. Besides fixing the embarassing spelling errors
(acciaccatura vs. accacciatura), it has the following improvements:

   * Each music expression can now be tagged, to make different printed
     versions from the same music expression.  In the following example,
     we see two versions of a piece of music, one for the full score,
     and one with cue notes for the instrumental part:

          < \tag #'part <
            { c4 f2 g }      % in the part, we have cue-notes
            \\ R1 >
            \tag #'score R1  % in the score: only a rest
          >

     The same can be applied to articulations, texts, etc.: they are
     made by prepending

                  -\tag #YOUR-TAGS

     to an articulation, for example,

                  c4-\tag #'with-fingerings -4 -\tag #'with-strings \6

     This defines a note, which has a fingering and a string-number
     indication.

   * The settings for chord-fingering are more flexible. You can
     specify a list where fingerings may be placed, eg.

                \property Voice.fingeringOrientations = #'(left down)

     This will put the fingering for the lowest note below the chord,
     and the rest to the left.

   * The script previously known as `ly2dvi' has been renamed to
     `lilypond'. The binary itself is now installed as `lilypond-bin'.
