Re: dashBar question

[mourik jan heupink]

Hmm...answering myself here:

The linked doc was for version 2.16, I was using 2.18. In that doc 
version it's "c-!" instead of "c-|".

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/expressive-marks-attached-to-notes

dashBang instead of dashBar

Sorry :-)
