Re: avoiding lyric tie collisions

I wrote earlier about the problem of the lyric tie colliding with "y"
and similar letters. No one responded (I suppose this is a bug), but I
have found a workaround.

I define a text-replacement for the non-breaking space character, U+00A0:
\paper {
  #(add-text-replacements!
      '(("|" . " ")))
}

Then in the lyrics I can type "|" when I need a bit of extra space
between the lyric tie and a character:

\lyricmode { y|~el cie -- lo~|y la tie -- rra }
