RE: Slides (Was Problems with em dash)

Thanks. I've filed your code away for future use. I'd already coded it the 
other way - rearranged the few chords that needed it so that the notes between 
which I wanted the slide appeared last in the chord <...> construct, and for 
the two chords where I needed to indicate a 2nd slide I used another voice with 
hidden notes.
