Re: [bug?] \lyricsto with lyrics above notes

[Juergen Reuter]

Ah, that is a different example under a different link; it's in section 
3.3.1 of the manual, i.e. 
Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/lily-733869916.ly

Still, this example looks a little bit buggy, as it uses durations in the
lyrics section:

sopWords = \lyrics { hi4 hi hi hi  }

I have to check (later this day) if can apply this example without 
explicit durations (i.e. writing "hi8" instead of "hi4" in this example 
should have no effect to the output).

Thanks,
Jürgen
