[Attachment #2 (multipart/alternative)]

In the NR, the following entry is given on the TextSpanner page:

 left-bound-info (list):

    ly:line-spanner::calc-left-bound-info

    An alist of properties for determining attachments of spanners to edges.

Similarly for right-bound-info.

Where does one find out what the alist actually is, and an explanation of the items \
it contains?

[I know the NR is supposed to be terse, but this is opaque to me. Even the UNIX man \
pages, famous for being reference material and not tutorial, and equally terse with \
equally good reason, generally have examples at the end.]
