Re: Midi lyrics

[Mats Bengtsson]

For the spaces, this clearly seems like a feature that LilyPond
should handle automatically and that probably is very easy
to implement. If you don't want to do the implementation
yourself, you might want to sponsor that feature, see
information at www.lilypond.org.
For CR/LF, I'm not sure if there is any information
in the current .ly file syntax that can be used to determine
where the phrases end. However, it's easy to manually include
a LF at the end of a syllable, just specify it as \n:
\lyricmode{ Here comes a LF\n }
