The glissandi were exactly what I was after. I wish I had thought about looking that up... Is it possible to contort glissandi to span two arbitrary notes instead of two adjacent ones?
----- Forwarded message from Edward Neeman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- I am not sure precisely what you are after. If you want a line that connects the noteheads, I would suggest reading about glissandos or Staff Switch lines in the manual. If you want a stem without a notehead, just hide the notehead: \once \override NoteHead #'transparent = ##t If you want a horizontal line, you can use a text spanner. If you want a wavy line, I would look up Clusters in the manual.
