I've been trying to figure out how to either manually position full measure

With normal rests, I can do b'2.\rest or put \override Rest #'direction = #'0
in the code above.
I can do R2. but the position is too high, due

Mark, what do you say? Is the current example in the manual too complex so

I've been having trouble with my karaoke midis made from LilyPond, seeing as

Generally speaking, the only UTF-8 characters I need are also included in

Hello,
I've been trying to figure out how to use dashes as punctuation in Lilypond for
a while now (instead of a semi-colon or colon). I can put the dashes in, and
they show up, but it seems there must be a space before or after the dash in

Hello,
I was wondering how to make an invisible time signature. I'm notating a long

of clefs changes throughout the song), and I want it to 'look' as if it were a
single score (i.e. the time signature only needs to b
