 ==I want hymn-style piano introduction brackets==
-* Use the following Unicode characters as text markup: ⌜ (U+231C) and ⌝ (U+231D)
+There are several methods to attempt this. Unfortunately, none of them I've seen I consider ''perfect'', but, I think some are better than others. Some of these methods may require use of a newer (or development) version of LilyPond. —[[User:Veramet|Veramet]] 01:35, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
-** If you want it above a certain note (say c'4), type c'4^\markup{\huge \bigger \bigger \bigger ⌜}
+===Method 1===
-*** \bigger and \huge are just to make the character bigger—if you want smaller characters, you can leave out these tags.
+*Have LilyPond draw the characters with special markup commands and then place them either above the notes or above the measure bars (it can be difficult to get them at equal vertical positions the latter way, though). For now, ask on the forum about how to do this.
 ==How do I get a tempo mark followed by a range, rather than a set number?==

 * You need to use UTF-8 encoding for the foreign characters to show up.  ANSI won't cut it anymore (it worked for ANSI characters back in version 2.4.6).  SciTE is a text editor that handles this encoding.  Windows notepad (for Windows 2000 and higher) also does, though it's a rather featureless editor.
