use textbackgrounds ... instead of drawing lines you then do a textext that does a \left{ in math alongside a vbox that has the height of the lefgt boundary etc etc
That would be really interesting for a project I'm working on (a songbook). I thought textbackgrounds could only put a color behind the text. Could you give an example of putting such a brace next to an arbitrary number of lines, please? Thank you in advance, Vianney
