Re: Skipping syllables / LyricExtender

Thanks, Paul, but is this mentioned somewhere in the docs?
AFAICS, they recommend using \skip everywhere for skipping notes.

"" is shorter and more logical, since, unlike `\skip (dur)` it does not
request the duration argument, which
is ignored in Lyrics, anyway.
