Notes overlap and SCshape

[Timothy S. Nelson]

        I'm using 1.3.135; I tried 1.3.140, but it crashed when I was
compiling.

        I've attached a GIF file of an overlap which is bad.  The Bass note is
an 'a4', and the tenor an 'a4.'.  The '.' is getting put on the other note.

        A question about Small Caps shape.  I've done as someone said, and
added
-------------------------------------
    ((3 medium caps roman cmcsc 12) . "cmcsc12")
    ((2 medium caps roman cmcsc 12) . "cmcsc12")
    ((1 medium caps roman cmcsc 12) . "cmcsc12")
    ((0 medium caps roman cmcsc 10) . "cmcsc10")
    ((-1 medium caps roman cmcsc 8) . "cmcsc8")
    ((-2 medium caps roman cmcsc 7) . "cmcsc7")
    ((-3 medium caps roman cmcsc 7) . "cmcsc7")
-------------------------------------
        to scm/font.scm.  Then to the start of my ly file, I added:
----------------------------------------
shapeSC   = \property Lyrics.LyricText \override #'font-shape = #'caps
shapeNorm = \property Lyrics.LyricText \revert   #'font-shape
----------------------------------------
        which was my attempt at following instructions I was given.  Then, in
a \lyrics thing, I use:
----------------------
 the4 \shapeSC Lord;2
----------------------
        I don't get an SC shape.  Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?

        Btw, the 1.3.140 compile error, if someone wants to know, was:
--------------------------------------
main.cc: In function `void main_prog (int, char **)':
main.cc:331: cannot convert `const char *' to `char *' for argument `1'
to `gh_eval_str (char *)'
make[1]: *** [out/main.o] Error 1

make: *** [all] Error 2
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.6739 (%build)
--------------------------------------

        :)
