Thanks, I think that's the trick I'd heard about before.  It almost
works.  What do you do for something like:

    c f     e/c/g/G/
w:  * ~3~4 ~6 
w:  *  .~2

where the 4 and the 2 are supposed to be between the f and the e/?

The problem is that ~ is a character only in the sense that it doesn't
cause a break, not in the sense that it takes up any room, so if you
have "* ~~2" in the second line of "lyrics", the 2 ends up under the 3
and not under the 4.
