A full-measure rest is printed as either a whole or breve rest,
@cindex multi-measure rest, expanding
@cindex multi-measure rest, contracting
-@funindex \expandFullBarRests
-@funindex expandFullBarRests
-@funindex \compressFullBarRests
-@funindex compressFullBarRests

By default a multi-measure rest is expanded in the printed score to
show all the rest measures explicitly. Alternatively, a multi-measure
rest can be shown as a single measure containing a multi-measure rest
