Ages ago Eric said programs should ... - follow the general convention for
shortcuts (ctrl + c for
copy, ctrl + a for select all etc.)
I'm just looking at this in Muse. The problems is that a clip has a musical
context described in Muse by Clef, Key signature, transpose, capo and
accidentals
It wasn't a serious comment, Atte, just injecting a bit of humor. Actually I agree
that the
sheet music should be as musically correct as possible ... i.e. notes named
appropriately
for the key signature, etc. There are some chord formations for guitar that are
extremely
difficult to play

Well, I have a little perl script that I use a lot to transpose
fragments (that may not include a K: line). It's convenient, but I do
have to watch its accidentals. For
One reason for preferring sharps for guitar chords is that if they are

Interesting. The thing that has bothered me for a long time is whether
being able to have files dropped on you is worth a megabyte of download
time.
When I built Muse I avoided MFC because the instant you touch it the file
size goes up by a megabyte (it may be more). Now it may be possible to

I think I counted that Muse has about 70 shortcuts defined (so there's heavy
