Automatic lyric extenders

[Jon Arnold]

Hi all-

I was trying to find if it was possible to do lyric extensions automatically, and found this thread: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Automatic-Lyric-Extenders-td198194.html

Did anything ever come of this project? The workaround in that thread throws an error for me.

I have a project where I'm trying to make it flexible to change whether I tie a note or not for later, and want to avoid having to go back in to do the lyric extenders if I choose to tie.

Thanks!

Jon
