Hello, this week I tried the cygwin port of the new version 1.6.4 with a little song. Since the letters of the lyrics overlap each other, I assume that I have to set some flag to change the spacing rule (from note-length proportional to (maximum) word-width). Is there any flag for archieving sufficient space (except placing many breaks, which the yields very large space for long notes with short text)?
