Acciaccatura

<!ELEMENT acciaccatura (chord+)>
<!ATTLIST acciaccatura
   id ID #IMPLIED
   %spine_ref;
   slur (yes | no) "no">

Element acciaccatura is intended to encode acciaccaturas. The acciaccatura is a shorter, less melodically significant, variant of the appoggiatura, where the delay of the principal note is scarcely perceptible – theoretically subtracting no time at all. It is written using one or more grace notes, with an oblique stroke through the stem.
This element has one or more chord sub-elements, following the syntax already explained for the chord element.
