Subject: Re: Cross staff slur help

I have a piece of piano music from the opening chorus of The
Gondoliers that I'm struggling to get my head round. A scan is
attached. It's a cross-staff slur, but my problem is that the music
in the left hand is still continuing (the crochet F) while the slur is
crossing the staves. I can't work out a) how to start setting this in
LilyPond or b) what it means in performance.
Can anyone help?
It's a rising melody line starting in the left hand and moving to the
right. The "music in the left hand" is _not_ "still continuing" in the
execution, but it would be silly to write an actual rest here while the
sustain pedal is down.
OK. Thanks.
So that's probably a case for f4*1/4 in the input.
Sorry - I don't understand. What does this mean?
