Hi! I'm creating a abc based digital library at http://alfarrabio.di.uminho.pt/mteca. I'm using abcm2ps and abc2midi. But these tools have problems. First, with abcm2ps, I cannot generate two eps images when the music is longer than one page. With abc2midi, some ABC notation is not supported

I've also been contemplating solving the need for random text such as last time under an ending bracket. This obviously needs quotes, and has syntax problems after a bar line. What I think would work is to say that you must use the '[' in this case, and you can then write |: CEC DED |1-3

Just tried bringing up BarFly 1.0d30 under Classic on Mac OS X 10.1.4, with QuickTime 5.06, and discovered that it doesn't seem to play properly - notes sound as if they have a long-delay echo on them. Is this a new problem, or known? I seem to remember it working properly when I first tried it
