15 The definition of lyrics mode is ludicrous, and this will remain so
16 until the authors of LilyPond acquire a deeper understanding of
17 character encoding, or someone else steps up to fix this.
20 A word in Lyrics mode begins with: an alphabetic character, @code{_},
21 @code{?}, @code{!}, @code{:}, @code{'}, the control characters @code{^A}
22 through @code{^F}, @code{^Q} through @code{^W}, @code{^Y}, @code{^^},
23 any 8-bit character with ASCII code over 127, or a two-character
24 combination of a backslash followed by one of @code{`}, @code{'},
25 @code{"}, or @code{^}.
27 Subsequent characters of a word can be any character that is not a digit
28 and not white space. One important consequence of this is that a word
29 can end with `@code{@}}', which may be confusing. However, LilyPond will
30 issue a warning. Any @code{_} character which appears in an unquoted
31 word is converted to a space. This provides a mechanism for introducing
32 spaces into words without using quotes. Quoted words can also be used
33 in Lyrics mode to specify words that cannot be written with the above

99 c:maj % triangle = maj
104 c:m % m = minor triad
105 c:m.6 % m6 = minor triad with added sixth
106 c:m.7+ % m triangle = minor major seventh chord
114 c:7.5+ % +7 = augmented dominant
115 c:7.5- % 7b5 = hard diminished dominant
122 c:13.9-^11 % 7(b9,13)
123 c:13.9+^11 % 7(#9,13)
125 c:13-.9-^11 % 7(b9,b13)
126 c:13-.9+^11 % 7(#9,b13)
128 % half diminished chords
129 c:m5-.7 % slashed o = m7b5
130 c:9.3-.5- % o/7(pure 9)
133 c:m5-.7- % o = diminished seventh chord
