Re: How to modify a syllable, if "~" (or "_") is involved?

[Jan-Peter Voigt]

Hi Harm,

this seems to be tricky, because the corresponding engraver seems to 
look for strings containig '~'. So a markup would have to be split ... a 
custom engraver might do it ...
If the syllable is not a string, but a markup containing a string, 
containing "~", then put the right stencil in there.

Just a thought ...

Best, Jan-Peter
