Line 1:

Here are some macros which can make a single staff appear as though its right side has been torn off. Two styles are available: the first "erases" the ends of individual staff- lines to different lengths; the second draws a zigzag line and erases everything to its right. Furthermore, the first type is capable of producing tear-patterns at random. Both work by temporarily modifying the <code>BarLine</code> stencil.

Here are some macros (contributed by Mark Polesky) which can make a single staff appear as though its right side has been torn off.

Furthermore, the first type is capable of producing tear-patterns at random. Both work by temporarily modifying the <code>BarLine</code> stencil.

For technical reasons, the zigzag lines don't show up in the Wiki because <code>\postscript</code> only works with LilyPond's PS backend and is neither supported in the SVG (used in this Wiki) nor in the Cairo backend.
