I missed that and it helped a lot..
What I was looking for was (especially) \null

I've reworked on the file.
Now it's quite ok, even though I'm sure it can be emproved.
I'll study more the doc and try to do something more elegant.

A legenda for tablature may be put in the LSR.. I guess it can be useful..
