Re: lyric spacing : "why not follow instructions in manual"

You're saying
you didn't see any effect even with #10? Because I got a huge, huge
difference in my test file with that.

I'm also using 2.6.4, so maybe this is something that's changed in the
update. (I'm not going to break a working system just to experiment.)

Aha. It works it 2.6.5. I'd have been using that, but I really like the way
the deciduous note stems in 2.7. Your method is
better than what is described in the manual at section 7.3.7.1, since it can
be applied *once* and will affect all problematic lyrics while exerting
minimal effect on note-spacing in general, in melismata, etc.  Maybe your 
method will work in
the stable 2.7 and maybe your it will get a place in the manual.

Thanks a lot.
