Some programs (for instance I know that Muse does because I wrote it) support this. I don't know about others. I can't remember if violas need tenor clef or alto clef (tenor I think). In Muse you could import the ABC and then change the clef. (e.g. Mark the section to be changed and then select Change clef from the Edit menu). There was talk of supporting syntax something like K:G clef=tenor (and indeed Muse will allow that) but there was then much argument without really reaching consensus. Some wanted it to be part of the V: command instead and so on. Maybe if you shout a bit louder and bang our heads together...

I have been using abc, mostly with abc2win, for a couple of years now with no problems, but now the group that I play with has added a viola player. I'd like to print off our music for her in a format that she can sight-read easily but haven't found a way to coax an alto "viola" clef out of abc. If it was in the archives to this list, I missed it. Any help you can offer would be appreciated; our viola player is a great kid who plays well with fiddlers and whistlers.
