You can write the drone notes as a separate abc voice.
Unfortunately, BarFly and abcm2ps are the currently only abc 
applications that allow you to notate multiple voices on a single staff. 
Here's an example how you can do it with BarFly. Maybe some abcm2ps user 
here can give the syntax for abcm2ps.

My program HARMONY will soon allow import of multi-voice abc files (this is
currently under development), and it can display multiple voices in the Bass
clef.
I will let you know when it is ready.

Does
the current abc have a syntax to do this?
No.  You can sort of do it in the way that Frank suggested, by putting
in another voice filled with tied notes, but it's a bit cumbersome,
and complicates the abc unnecessarily.
Some abc player programs offer you the option to play a drone while
playing the abc (abcMus, BarFly and maybe others) but there's no way
to write this into the abc.
Perhaps there should be an official syntax for this, something like:

%%drones C G

or

K:Hp drones A A A,

[abcusers] Abctwin

2003-10-25 Thread Randall J Elzinga


Hello abc users

Does anybody here know what happened to the website containing the abctwin 
software?  As far as I can tell, the only url from which it could be 
downloaded is http:/www.logeny.com/abctwin.htm, but when I go there the 
content of the webpage has nothing to do with abc software.

It looks like the company removed the page.  Or maybe it went bankrupt,
or got bought out, or completely revamped itself.

In any event, the abctwin page is no longer there.  But all is not lost.

Go to the WayBackMachine ( http://www.archive.org/ ) and search for 
http://www.logeny.com/abctwin  or  http://www.logeny.com/ABCTwin.exe.  
They cache the contents of the web from time to time.  They don't always
get every bit of a site, but I'll bet they've got a copy in there 
somewhere.

2003-10-25 Thread Randall J Elzinga
Thanks for the tip.

I found a few copies of the file.  However, when I try to download the most 
recent version, I get a failed connection message.  I was able to download 
the second most recent version of the file, but when I try to use it I get 
ABCTwin.exe is not a valid Win32 application.

Any suggestions?

Is ABCTwin.exe supposed to be a stand alone executable?
