I looked carefully in the Lilypond manuals, but did not find a way to put a note (usually a full or a half note) between two bars, like this : |o|, or between two double bars, like this : ||o||. This notation is for example often used in psalmody, to mean that the same note should be used for a whole sentence, except its three or four last syllables, which are then noted with usual notes. For instance, the first verse of psalm 1 is "Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked", and such a note is put under "Blessed", with three different notes under "with the wicked".

Those are 'breve' notes. Look them up using the search box. Perhaps this will give an indication of how to write them: http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/notation/writing-rhythms

Are you talking about a breve (using \breve instead of a duration, see http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/writing-rhythms)? You may also be looking at cadenzas, see http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/displaying-rhythms#unmetered-musicTo put multiple syllables under one note, use quotes, as in "Blessed is the one who does not walk in step" with the wicked.

That was a fast answer! Many thanks, indeed I did not look carefully enough in the manual.
