I slightly prefer "\new Lyrics \lyricsto" to the reverse, but either one is better than \addlyrics, by me; for whatever reason, I still find \addlyrics oddly confusing, and using \lyricsto is (to me) much clearer since I really know exactly what I'm associating with what. As a general rule, I think it's easier to learn named constructs before anonymous ones. On the "indent" issue, most people should at least be familiar with the word wrt paragraphs or block quotations, so you should be able to leverage that. -- -=-Don [EMAIL PROTECTED]<http://www.blahedo.org/>-=- Tell a man that there are 400 billion stars and he'll believe you.
