Hi gurus,
What is the preferred way to add general texts?
So far I've found two ways that are reasonably 'universal':
\mark \markup { MyText }
or
s1*0 ^\markup { MyText }
where the latter has the possibility to position the text above the staff.
or is there another way that should be used
Depends on what you want to use it for.
For a longer section of text, such as lyrics lines for some verses
of a song, you can actually have a \markup{...} completely outside the
\score{...}.

Hi Mats,
or is there another way that should be used for general purpose?
Too general question to answer!
Well, in fact it's a clear answer. Apparently there is no general way.
thanks,
Hans.
ps. I agree with Trevor that adding the different ways to the manual would
help.

Most of this info is already in the manual, though.
* external \markup { } for a block of text outside a score
Not really covered, but I've added it now.
