Re: How to code a glide?

I'm sorry to say that I don't even know the proper term for what I am trying to do. I am setting some Georgian folksongs. Sometimes they end with a descending glide on the last note (like an engine running down). On the handwritten sheet music I have been using this is represented as a squiggly descending line after the last note. I'd like to put that in my score, but I have no idea how to code it. Does anyone have an idea?

Look at glissando.

Scroll down to find an example with the squiggly line.
