New subscriber (and new ABC user for that matter) would be an accurate
description for me. Still trying to get my feet on the ground, but I am
making progress. I have gathered some suitable software thanks to some
earlier help from members of this list and the truly excellent tutorial
sites. I find ABC a fascinating concept... Not a unique feeling on this
list I am sure :-)
Am I to gather from the above quote that there is a collection of ABC files
for the "O'Neill" project(s) at John Chambers' site? If so, I can't seem
to locate them as such. Perhaps they have been disseminated into the
overall/greater tune collection?
