Thanks, I am stupid not to have used the search, I just went and looked
in the reference manual and overlooked it.

Now I have other questions, I get my time signature printed at the end
of this first line, how can I force this one to be on the next line ?
I also have a really funny thing with whole-measure rests: my score is
in \time 17/8 and it starts with two empty measures. To get this I seem
to need 
 R8*17
 R8*17
 R8*17
three times, for some reason. Probably I did not understand the meaning
of the R symbol.
And last question, I do not seem to be able to put text on top of the
resting measures with ^"160bpm" like R8*17^"160bpm" or so. I need to put
it on the first note, which makes the tempo appear only at the third
measure. Again I suspect I am doing it wrong.
