It
seems in Lilypond (v2.10.14) the default notation for glissandos is
a straight line. I've never seen that notation used for glissando
before so I have no idea why it's the default, but that's OK because
everything can be changed, right?
So I tried "\override Glissando #'style = #'zigzag", thinking it would
give me the right thing. But it gives me a very thin, light zig-zag
line -- yet another notation that I have never seen used for
glissando.
The most common, correct notation for glissando looks like a trill
mark. It's a wavy line of varying thickness.
A statement in the on-line reference documentation suggests that
"\override Glissando #'style = #'trill" might help:

line. How do I get correct glissando notation?

P.S. I really *love* the output I get from Lilypond but even (dare I
say it?) Finale gets this particular piece of notation more or less
right.
