I'd definitely go for the second option (CW as gatekeeper); surely there's less risk of stasis that way. /Stephen Merrony http://www.stephenmerrony.co.uk/...
Dear Lewis When I received a contribution in the form of MusicXML files to an ABC based folk tune wiki in which I am involved (http://www.folkwiki.se/) I...
Dear Lewis, I am glad that you found it useful. Encouraged by your response I have now added basic support for lyrics too. Before I ask if Jon Freeman is...

Dear abcusers, Greetings! With the assistance of Nils Liberg's excellent onlineMusicXML to abc converter at http://www.folkinfo.org/songs/abcconvert.php Chuck...
Dear Lewis, greetings to you too! Regarding the mode I think the main reason why it could be important is if one wants to do some kind of automatic indexing of...
... Hi Nils, That is very good news! It looks very promising. Do you think EasyABC will be "easy" to port for the GNU system? I see it is written in Python,...
Hi Hudson, yes, considering that it only took a couple of minutes to get most parts of the OSX version working for the first time it should hopefully be quite...
I downloaded the OSX version and so far like it a lot. Would love to have some ability to output tunes: print or save as pdf, save as XML. -Steve ... -- ...
This looks very promising! I'm looking forward to trying it out more. BTW, File->Open doesn't appear to do anything on my system (Windows Vista). I expected...
Dear Nils, Â Greetings! Â Excellent! You have done yet more great work for us! Â I have tried out your new programme. File--Open does not do it for me in ...
Quite nice. I couldn't find how to print either the abc file or the produced notation. It didn't seem to use %%scale 1.0 or %%format filename.fmt type entries...
File-->open works fine in the OSX version however is limited to files with the .abc extension. At the least, it would be useful to include .txt files, however...
Thank you for reporting this. It was a strange problem, but it seems that building the EXE file and installer on Vista instead of XP may have fixed it. Please...
Dear Lewis, if you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7 then please try the new version that I just updated which should hopefully fix the file dialog problem....
... This doesn't matter, if it's going to open all files regardless of extension, but FWIW the extensions I use for ABC files are, in addition to the obvious...
(Argh -- mis-edit: that final "instead" was going to be "instead of abcm2ps and abc2midi", but I decided to drop that phrase and missed by a word when I...
Well, I wrote off list, but I think the issues I've discovered ought to be know about so others don't encounter them. I'm working on a Mac (OS 10.6.7). 1)...
As a followup to my previous note: I found a solution to the crashing problem, and reinstalled the program. Editing works fine. I'd prefer instant change,...

Thanks for the fixes and the advice on usage. I'd still want the ability to add my own command line options, though. The problem is I don't use just one...
