This subject used to be documented but doesn't seem to be in the 2.11.37
doc's. It also doesn't seem to work as it did at one time
This is from the 2.4 manual which resulted from my Googling:
If you want to have a text on the left end of a multi-measure rest,
attach the text to a zero-length skip note, i.e.
s1*0^"Allegro"
R1*4
Attached is an example which doesn't work that way. It centers the test as
MultiMeasureRestText
<http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/Documentation/user/lilypond-internals-big-page#MultiMeasureRestText>
would be expected to do.
