add9 would be 9 without the seventh (the 9 includes the 7, as you surely
know), so it would write:

a4:9^7
That is all true, but I must say I have never seen it written like that
in any book with guitar chords or chord diagrams. Is it possible to make
is actually say Aadd9?
Lilypond sets add9, if you use the code I mentioned. I use \semiGermanChords 
in the \chordmode, I don't know, if that makes any difference...
Thanks for the tip, but it still isn't correct - when I use this
a4:97
I get the chord displayed as
A9/add13
