Hi Mark,

if bendAfter is not sufficient, a glissando would have been my next
suggestion, too. :)

Yes, \bendAfter is just what I was looking for. Thank you very much!

Look at glissando.

Scroll down to find an example with the squiggly line.

John,

 

How about a zig-zag glissando?

I'm sorry to say that I don't even know the proper term for what I am trying to 
do. I am setting some Georgian folksongs. Sometimes they end with a descending 
glide on the last note (like an engine running down). On the handwritten sheet 
music I have been using this is represented as a squiggly descending line after 
the last note. I'd like to put that in my score, but I have no idea how to code 
it. Does anyone have an idea?

Look for bendAfter. Does it already help?
