Also forwarding to the list.

However, despite my hope at the end of the below message I did *not* find the culprit why it doesn't work with current LilyPond anymore. It would be cool if you (David) could have a look at the code and help me get this to work again.

I'll have a look when I'm at my computer.  I think I gave you the wrong predicate--should be ly:grob-properties?  I think.  In any case, I'll work it out.

Hi David,

thanks for the reply.

There is the snippet notation-snippets/lyric-syllable-magnetic-snap
which doesn't work with 2.19.60 (2.18 works).

I believe it can be fixed by changing a predicate (sorry i can't view the source now to say which one) to ly:grob-property?  This would make it fail with 2.18, so a version predicate would be needed.

OK, maybe I'll find it myself then.
I'm right now working on a new openLilyLib package. This means I won't keep 2.18 support. We decided to drop that with the oll-core based infrastructure, just because there are so fundamental improvements around 2.19.22 (mostly these, but of course all the other general improvements as well) that we just won't keep it working on the different versions.
So in *this* case I can ignore that.

Is this something that has been integrated into LilyPond by now? I seem
to recall that words in lyrics are joined now if there's no space for
hyphensl

This would be news to me.

Oh, what I pity. I thought this would work by now.
Obviously I mistook it for the feature that the hyphen is automatically removed (see attachment).

Do you recall any reason why you didn't add this to LilyPond then?

Probably because introducing a new LyricWord grob seemed like a big change, so I was hoping for some feedback before going forward.  Also, I seem to remember some issues reported on the user list or on GitHub.  I haven't looked into these.

I'm happy to push forward with this, but it would be best when 2.20 has been locked down.
