Explain? libabc is going to be quite strict, especially about headers.
I'm probably going to have to provide an "abcfix" program that attempts
to "standardize" non-compliant abc files. Is this what you mean?

Indeed, but I wanted ".(ab)" and "-(ab)". Otherwise (espcially with
-(ab-)) you run into problems with the parser.
I just realized... it would have to be "(-ab)", otherwise "fg-(ab)"
comes out as a grammar conflict. (It's not very sensical anyway.)
