I have added code to 1.9CVS, which lets you switch what determines the melismata. > I suppose that lyrics alignment also depends on language.

Actually, the lyric alignment code was contributed by Glen Prideaux, who since disappeared off the face of the earth. Unfortunately, what he contributed was not very good: the code does a lot of formatting where it shouldn't (during "interpreting"), and it gets all the alignment wrong: putting the vowel under the note head is the standard convention, and I don't know what lily does, but doesn't look good. -- Han-Wen Nienhuys | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanwen _______________________________________________ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
