Is there a way to get lyric extenders to appear automatically when
lyrics have been applied to a voice using `\lyricsto`? I know how to
manually get them to appear (with `__`), but I'm wondering if there is a
simple setting that can be changed in an included style file that would
allow me to make the change universally for all file in a particular
project.
A testable snippet (not totally minimal, but it has several occasions
where the lyric extenders could show up):
#(ly:set-option 'relative-includes #t)
\version "2.19.53"
\language "english"
% the included style file would go here
global = { \key e \major }
music = {
e'( f-sharp') g-sharp'( a') b'-- b' c-sharp' b'( a') g-sharp'--
\bar "|"
b'( a') g-sharp'--( a' g-sharp') f-sharp'( e') c-sharp'-- e'-- \bar
"||"
}
words = \lyricmode {
Let us love one a -- no -- ther,
for love is of God.
}
\new Staff
<<
\new Voice = "mel" { \global \music }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "mel" { \words }
>>
