Hi all and Amelie,

I have been using your script and it really works.

I have one question, when I want to add -- or ___ between lyrics they
don't show up in the final ps or pdf (see attached) notice to notes with
no lyrics that is because in the song there are a few places with a few
notes per one sylable.

I checked the mahyedid.out.29 and all the -- and __ had vanished???

What to do??

Also notice in the exampe that the lyrics in the first measure are not
aligned right.

Help
Thanks
Aaron
