Hi Adam,

If I recall correctly, the syntax for getting vertical nibs at the
edge of text spanners the old way was to override the edge-text
attribute of the grob. Something like this ...

  \override TextSpanner #'edge-text = #'(left . right)

... where you have to replace "left" and "right" with the command to
draw-line shown in the previous example.

I'm running the 2.11.x series only; can you find reference to
edge-text in the 2.10 manual?

Trevor.
