-3 chords are no problem. At the moment, continued lines are a problem, and the routine strips the continuation chars out and handles it one text line at a time. Here's the output: X:1 T:Yammil Abaya T:Lovely Maiden O:Iraq B:Charles Haywood, Folk Songs of the World (1966) Z:Jack Campin 2002 N:BarFly doesn't display the second chord in line 5. N:It does if you put the chord on the principal note, rather than on N:a beam of grace notes. N:The double bars mark text line breaks, but are N:really a workaround for BarFly's line-end bug.
