tam tam mode questions

[Quintijn Hoogenboom]

Hello list,

Maybe I want too much for a beginner. Not easy, all this stuff, although I
am an experienced programmer in other languages.

I want to add Lyrics to a DrummStaff or (even better) a RhythmicStaff. See
example below.

In order to have 
- a single line with a rythm, to be associated with lyrics, 
- below that a single line with two times text associated with the rythm of
the first line (above and below)
- and another rythm on the third line (this last one is ok now).

when I enter \context Voice = "one" (for the lyrics to catch), 5 lines
appear again.

Three other questions at this point: 
1. how can I (preferably in RhytmicMode) shift up or down the notes, so they
are a little above or below the staff line? And how can I remove the stems
in the bottom voice?

2. How can I control the vertical spacing of this all?

3. Is there any chance I can typeset music vertical (from bottom to top!)


Thanks, Quintijn
