Re: "\lyrics" deprecated?

[Mats Bengtsson]

See the NEWS file for version 2.4:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.4/Documentation/topdocs/out-www/NEWS.html
which explains \lyrics, \chords, \drums and \figures.

I'm not sure if it's a good idea to document it as an official
feature, though. It might just cause confusion to describe
yet another syntax for something that's easy to do anyway.
On the other hand, \chords is used as some places in the
Tutorial and Cheat sheet. Also, \drums and \figures is
used in a few examples in the manual.
