To add a new song, click on the "add song" toolbutton at the top of the main playlist window. You can edit an existing song by right-clicking[1] on the song name while editing a playlist:
Once you have selected a song to edit, or chosen "Add Song", you will be taken to the song editor window. The song editor window looks like this:
This consists of two parts; the right hand part is an automatically-generated preview. The left part is where you enter all the details of the current song: its title, key, year, and so on. The box at the bottom is where you enter the lyrics. The lyrics are entered using a couple of conventions:
Verses, choruses and bridges are entered as paragraphs,
with a blank line separating them. Lines breaks are preserved inside a
verse. To begin a chorus or bridge, the first line should be
"Chorus:" or "Bridge:"
respectively, with the text of the chorus/bridge immediately following
and with no blank line in between.
When entering Japanese furigana, do so like this:
(漢|かん). That is to
say, place the expression in brackets; put the main text
first, then a pipe sign (|), and then the furigana. The
brackets and pipe sign must be entered in romaji. The furigana
will be displayed above the main text. You should be able to
see this on the preview.
