Hi I need to get a section at the beginning of a piece of liturgical
music I have (Only Begotten Son) in which /*sometimes*/ a certain thing
is sung but /not /normally sung indicated. The typical manner I have
seen this done is via the use of angled bar lines the same as that of
the angled repeat bar lines I have seen in frescobaldi and such but
without the repeat signs. Is there a way to do that? I really hope there
is.

Thanks,

-Michael Dykes

You have to define your own bar line style using \defineBarLine:

\version "2.18.2"

\defineBarLine "[" #'("|" "[" ".")
\defineBarLine "]" #'("]" "" ".")

\relative {
   c'1 \bar "[" c \bar "]" \break
   c \bar "[" \break
   c \bar "]" c
}




Thanks, that is*exactly*  what I was looking for!

An explanation of this: define a bar line style called "[" that normally 
prints a "[" bar line. At the end of a line print "|" instead (as in the 
first line of my example), at the beginning of a line print "[", and 
print "." for span bars (note: span bars don’t yet really work with "[" 
as expected).
