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.
