By way of background, without the new option, + rests in two-voice staves have default positions based on + a simple rule that is not context-sensitive: those + in the lower voice (the one before "//") are 4\internote below their + single-voice default positions, and those in the upper line are 2\internote + above the single-voice default. The new option invokes a set of + context-sensitive rules to set the default position. The baseline rule is to + align the rest in a horizontal line with the next following note in the same + bar. If there is no following note in the bar, then it is aligned with the + next prior note. If there are simulataneous rests in both voices, the old + rule is applied. When the AK option is in force, it only affects places + where there are two voices in a staff. It may be toggled on and off at the + beginning of any input block, using + just AK. When the option is in effect, any user-defined tweaks on the height + of a rest will supersede the option for that particular rest, i.e., the tweak + will be applied relative to the single-voice default position.</li> +</ul> + +<p>2.506</p> +<ul> + <li>Fixes a bug in AK.

Basic function of "K" and "Ki" unchanged. + "IT[+/- n1][+/- n2]..." now transposes MIDI by \internotes, not half steps + as before.
