<h4 class="subsection">4.1.1 Introduction to tweaks</h4>
<p>‘Tweaking’ is a LilyPond term for the various methods available
to the user for modifying the actions taken during interpretation
of the input file and modifying the appearance of the printed
output. Some tweaks are very easy to use; others are more
complex. But taken together the methods available for tweaking
permit almost any desired appearance of the printed music to be
achieved.
<p>In this section we cover the basic concepts required to understand
tweaking. Later we give a variety of ready-made commands which can
simply be copied to obtain the same effect in your own scores, and
at the same time we show how these commands may be constructed so
that you may learn how to develop your own tweaks.
<p>Before starting on this Chapter you may wish to review the section
<a href="Contexts-and-engravers.de.html#Contexts-and-engravers">Contexts and engravers</a>, as Contexts, Engravers, and the
Properties contained within them are fundamental to understanding
and constructing Tweaks.
