You shouldn't worry so much about it, then ;P

If i understood correctly ("user can type '--' in his file and than
search-and-replace it to '\-' "), that's anti-usability and
anti-userfrindliness at it's best.

I will keep repeating (sorry): better change lyric hyphen command than
use different commands for lyric hyphen and markup hyphenation.  I
don't care that much about what the command actually will be - both
'--' and '\-' are quite fine to me (i could live with '=' too) - as
long as it's the same in both cases.

cheers,
Janek
