Re: Just chords and lyrics.

[Carl D. Sorensen]

Given this situation, it seems to me that the best thing to do is to just
put both examples (DevNull and hidden voice) in the LSR, and have them show
up in selected snippets.

None of the solutions is so good that I think they should be included in the
main portion of the manual.
