I'm having two (unrelated) problems adding lyrics at the moment, and wondered 
if someone could help.

1: I want to begin a word with a ( . I need to do this to indicate how a vowel 
is to be pronounced - e.g. (ch)il(d) . I've tried various things - using escape 
sequences as described in the manual, preceeding the bracket with a \ etc. but 
nothing gives me clean output (i.e. without other characters.) Is there a way 
of doing this?

2: Extenders. I'm not using /lyricsto or /addlyrics because the rhythms in my 
music are too complex. Instead I'm just entering all the lyrics with duration 
values and then printing them in a Lyrics context. How can I (or can I) add 
extenders manually? At the moment nothing I've tried has worked, and there is 
no mention of this in the manual or in the archives (as far as I can see.)


Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Vivian.
