But, of course, you’ll find it documented in the Notation Reference: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/chord-notation and http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/common-chord-modifiers.
Thus, following your examples, you write f1:m7 or ef1:6.9.
Best regards, Simon

Actually, I'm still not really finding what I want in the snippets repository. I don't see how I can [for instance] get a minor 7th chord symbol. I just want to say "The chord here is F-7" [or Eb-6/9], without having to write out all the notes of the chord, which is what seems to happen in the snippets examples...

Well, the latter. But if you search for "jazz chords" you find a pretty good function. I haven't tried it, but I may soon as I have wanted to use LilyPond for transcribing jazz music and lead sheets.

Are you suggesting that the file pop-chords.ly can be obtained from the snippets repository? If so, I don't yet see how. Or are you just suggesting that the snippets repository contains many useful and interesting examples, in which case I agree completely?

Also, if the LSR search isn't working the way you want:
in Google: "site:lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/"

Apparently I can get just say f:7.9- to get an F7b9. Hooray! Still wondering if there's a canonical place for pop-chords.

I see many references to this on the mailing list, but are these files anywhere standard? I grabbed an old jazz-chords.ly from some mailing list message, but then it didn't work when I included it, and it had no version number so I couldn't figure out how to convert it.
What I actually want to do: single line melodies with chord symbols. I'm using the "Simple lead sheet" from http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/snippets/chords as an example, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do things like get an F7b9 symbol in there. Most of the "chords" examples I find lying around seem to be built around the idea that you want to show a bunch of pitches of a chord and then get the name automatically? What am I missing?
The Lilypond Snippet Repository (a.k.a LSR) is a very helpful place to look for this sort of thing. I don't have the URL handy on my iPad but the name ought to be enough to help you find it via a web search.
