Hi everyone,
in the markup below, two lines of text will be printed in a column
so, one on top of the other.
How can I decrease/increase the vspace between them?

Hi all,
Thanks everyone for being such active participants in this community -

I should clarify one point: in only the past three years, I've seen a
lot of lilypond's documentation become out of date. That makes me look
for long-term solutions for the docs. I really think of this like
software engineering: planning and designing a computer program may seem
like a waste

To add a dissenting voice, I don't think this is LSR-worthy, in my

Surely it's clear from the postfix-style syntax for manual beaming
that the right square bracket should directly follow the note which is
to be at the end of the requested beaming, i.e.
Have you read the section on Polymetric notation?
You may also want to play with the techniques described in "Scaling
