For me, this doesn’t work though: the extender line is not finished by
" " – no idea, why. For you it worked?
I attach my test file for checking.
There seems to be a difference coming from the way the lyrics are
created. In your test file, you create the lyric text directly, and the
function works when you take the space out between the double quotes.
In my case, I enter the lyrics in \lyricmode, in a variable, which I
then call on the \new Lyrics line. *With* the quoted space, I get the
expected result, as well as repeated errors:
warning: LyricText has empty extent and non-empty stencil.
Taking out the space clears the errors and gives me extenders ending
where I want them.
That suggests that \lyricmode behaves differently when it is nested.
In any case, I've learned a tiny bit more of scheme, and moved my
project forward. Many thqanks to you and Phil!
Cheers,
Colin
