Baroque ornamentation

Hello:

Does Lilypond have a way to print a pre-classical period appogiatura
as preceding  a prall or mordent? It looks like  a tie or a slur
tipped at an angle just before the note which is ornamented. In
checking how this is performed I understand that it is an appogiatura
as J.S. Bach would have written it. It was J.C. Bach ( I believe ) who
began the practice of writing appogiaturas with a note value rather
than just an ornament glyph.

Cheers,
David
