@subsection Rests
@cindex Rests
-Rests are entered like notes, with note name `@code{r}'. The grob is
-@code{Rest}. Whole bar rests centered in the bar are specified using
-@code{R}, see @ref{Multi measure rests}.
+A rest is entered like a note, with note name `@code{r}':
+
+@lilypond[singleline,verbatim]
+r1 r2 r4 r8
+@end lilypond
+

@c . {Skips}
+@c FIXME: naming.
@node Skips
@subsection Skips
@cindex Skip
+@cindex Invisible rest
+@cindex Space note
+An invisible rest, or skip, can be entered like a note with note name
+`@code{s}':
+
+@lilypond[singleline,verbatim]
+a2 s4 a4 s1 a4
+@end lilypond
+
+Actually, this is a shorthand for the @code{\skip} command, and it is
+only available in Note mode and Chord mode.
+
+@c FIXME: in lyrics mode, we have " " and _
+
+In Lyrics mode, you can use `@code{" "}' and `@code{_}':
+@lilypond[singleline,verbatim]
+<
+ \context Lyrics \lyrics { lah2 di4 " " dah2 _4 di }
+ \notes\relative c'' { a2 a4 a a2 a4 a }
+>
+@end lilypond
+
+The unabbreviated `@code{\skip} @var{duration}' also works outside of
+note mode:
+
+@lilypond[singleline,verbatim]
+\score {
+ \context Staff <
+ { \time 4/8 \skip 2 \time 4/4 }
+ \notes\relative c'' { a2 a1 }
+ >
+}
+@end lilypond
-@example
- \skip @var{duration}
- s@var{duration}
-@end example
-@cindex @code{\skip}
-Skips the amount of time specified by @var{duration}. If no other music
-is played, a gap will be left for the skipped time without any notes
-printed. The shorthand is only available in Note and Chord mode.
