... Hi Henry, I am glad to hear from people implementing and using abcm2ps extensions. I think we could join efforts to design and implement extensions and ...
For those of you with enough Unix-savvy to understand the question ... Given (1) a command-line tool to massage ABC files, possibly in a batch, with (2) an...

Calum is correct, the unix philosophy is of "small tools" in a plumbing process chain model of pipes, filters, sources and sinks. however, if you are modifying...
One other thing I would expect, as a Unix user, is to name the backup file with a tilde (~) character appended instead of changing the extension to .bak. So,...
+1 for me on the ~ idea, although most modern tools including Emacs will recognize both; I believe vi uses .bak quasi-related to this and almost completely...
... Well, there are enough unix tools using .bak -- but they usually do not *replace* the original extension (the concept of file name extensions is rather...
quasi-related to this and almost completely off-topic for abc but I'm asking ... What sort of transforms? I do almost all my audio file manipulations via...
thanks -- I know sox of course, but ecasound might be what I need, I'll check it out. What I want ideally is a simple command line way to invoke any of those...

... Easier for me, too ... how friendly is that to Windows users? (I don't have a native Windows C compiler, but I do plan to compile under Cygwin at least --...
... Again, less of a PITA for me to code ... but how friendly is this to Windows users when it gets ported? (I'm thinking more about the "principle of least...
Please include either a -h, -?, /h or /? to bring up a help file to explain what options are available. They are usually worth their weight in gold. I like...

My main concern here is the problems I've had in my Tune Finder due to the widespread differences in how X: is used (or not used). I've probably seen most of...
Isn't the root cause of this an attempt to add features that are not available? I feel solving the expansion problem would not only solve the X: violated...
Thanks for putting this together. The operators list is especially great. I made an alphabetized version of the operators listing (didn't change anything...
