A P.S. to my beginner musings:
Perhaps, the VerticalAxisGroup stretchability variable could be adjusted
in its behavior, so that when it is at 0, no bounding box/skyline
safeguards are considered for the nonstaff-relatedstaff-spacing property
at all - the 'text baseline to staff center'

Hi everyone,
May I ask for some advice?
I would like to have a single line staff that is grouped with other
staffs, which I use to display chords and lyrics into rows above and
below the line. I am using the following tweak on each lyric line, where
'y' is adjusted:
Is there a setting to get bar lines to show on the far left side of
single staff systems? I haven't been able to find a way to do this, if
it is possible.
Thanks,

I figured out why copying and pasting the postscript code did not work.
