Ok. I had already read that section last night. I just read it again to make
sure. I am either blind or the answer to my question is not there.
It says in the manual:
"A crescendo mark is started with \< and terminated with \! or an absolute
dynamic. A
decrescendo is started with \> and is also terminated with \! or an absolute
dynamic. \cr and
\decr may be used instead of \< and \>."
I am new to Lilypond, so there must be some other detail I do not know about.
But if I have no second note to attach the termination to, how do I do it?
