In the following tune I have added a text comment at the end, which with formatting produces part of a PDF file (and I may want to add the lyrics separately...
Tried that. I use ABCexplorer and any attempt to insert a blank line onto the end of a tune before the %%vskip gives me a % on its own line; which works fine...
Ah yes, that does the trick. -BUT- I use ABCexplorer, which seems to abhor a vacuum. Whenever I try to insert a blank line after a tune it automatically...
Hi Chris, The correct way to use %%begintext/%%endtext inside a tune is prepending %% to every line inside the block. (The same is true for %%beginps/%%endps.)...
Thank you Hudson, That does seem to be the solution, and works when I try it for both PDF and Midi. I note that in Guido Gonzato's ABCplus_en_1.2.0 tutorial,...

Hi All, My latest project is an ABC browser for the Android platform. So far I have quite nice rendering of ABC melodies and in-line lyrics, basic chords,...
Hi everybody, I am confused by the explanation in the ABC 1.6 standard regarding the computation of the default note lenght. As far as I understand, the note ...
what you have described so far is already headed for MY android, but an online search/download service like thesession.org isn't a bad idea either, although,...
... The note default length defined in the L: field takes precedence. The value calculated from the M: field only applies if there is no L: field. ... If...

I wouldn't need on-line search myself. If I wanted a file that wasn't handy then I could use my browser to find and download it. What I'd really like though,...

That's a good point about a specialized keyboard. Typing abc into an iPhone is a royal pain. If a Droid keyboard could be something like: c d e f g a b C D E...
I thought I heard somewhere that we could somehow set the bass cleff to be "low" so that notes typed into a bass cleff part which is only base notes could be...
... I usualy use: V:2 clef=bass middle=d %%MIDI transpose -24 so that E is one ledger line below the bass staff and c' is one ledger line above (i.e....
Thanks for the various thoughts guys. I'm thinking the initial release probably won't have any kind of search engine (mainly because there seem to be so many...
I think I'd love to see all the features already listed there: displaying notes and playing them would be quite sufficient for me. Eventually modifying a tune....
I'm up for beta-testing too. Not quite found the time to get into Android app development yet, but having tunes immediately to hand is always great. Cheers, ...

Yes it works. The only problem I found in a quick test was that only the first tune in the file was played (although both were displayed in the score). But...
Hi Ali, Thanks for the quick feedback. Converting only one tune is a limitation in abc2midi as far as I know. I guess I *COULD* flag it to two several separate...

... That's interesting. The abc2midi on my PC (abcMIDI-20080924-1.fc10) outputs multiple midi files by default. Yours must be set up differently. ... Nope....
