\chordmode { c:sus4 c:7sus4 c:dim7 c:m6 }
\chordmode { c:13 c:13.11 c:m13 }

The above is the lilypond code for printing chords above notes. The
syntax is the same for chord entry. Type in c:13 for a thirteenth chord.
c:dim7 for cdim7. The chord extension goes after the : symbol. So
cis:dim7 is going to be C#dim. The letters must be lowercase though. I
don't have anything set up to convert it to lower case at the moment.
