Did you search for "crescendo" in the index of the
reference manual?
In that case, you would have ended up at
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.0/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/Dynamics.html
However, there are also predefined commands
\cresc, \endcresc, \dim, \enddim
but then the text of the diminuendo will be
"dim." and not "decresc.".
You could easily define your own macros, though.
The default ones (found in
/usr/share/lilypond/*/ly/spanner-init.ly) are
dim = \notes {
#(ly:export (make-event-chord (list decr)))
\property Voice.decrescendoText = \markup { \italic "dim." }
\property Voice.decrescendoSpanner = #'dashed-line
}
enddim = \notes {
#(ly:export (make-event-chord (list rced)))
\property Voice.decrescendoText \unset
\property Voice.decrescendoSpanner \unset
}
Unfortunately, it seems that these macros are
completely undocumented.
