New issue 3741 by [email protected]: In lyrics, hyphens are added to words
in version 2.16.2 only if the word crosses a barline
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3741
% In lyrics, line breaking using the -- convention does not work when a
word is contained in a single measure. The -- convention works only when
the hyphen crosses a boundary.
% I have taken an example from the tutorial at:
%
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/learning/aligning-lyrics-to-a-melody
% where the output shown in the tutorial is not reproduced in 2.16.2.
Specifically, "manger" is not broken with a hyphen. I also played with the
example to show that crossing a barline is the key to making -- work as
documented.
\version "2.16.2"
<<
% Example from online tutorial, note that manger is not broken
\relative c' {
\key g \major
\time 3/4
\partial 4
d4 | g4 g a8( b) | g4 g b8( c) |
d4 d e | c2
}
\addlyrics {
A -- | way in a __ | man -- ger,
no __ | crib for a | bed, __
