Re: Non-justified plainchant (Gregorian and modern notation)

[Mats Bengtsson]

Sorry, now I realize what you mean. Extending the staff lines turns out
to be a fairly simple exercise, however I have not managed to place the
custos at the end of the line.

\score{
  \new Staff \notes\relative c'{
    c d e f g a b c c b a g f e d c
    c d e f g a b c c b a g f e d c
    c d e f g a b c c b a g f e d c
  }

  \paper{
    raggedright = ##t
    \context {
      \StaffContext
      \consists Custos_engraver
      \override StaffSymbol #'width = #'105
    }
  }
}

The example Jan refered to can be found at
