No, ABC2Win demands an entry M: with the argument of the form number/number,
e.g. 4/4
(2) can it handle in-line fields, in particular metre changes?
Yes, done that; meter and key change can appear in the length of a stave line,
but the K: M: L: fields must be at the left margin, and preferably in that
order.
(3) can it handle a file where all the tunes have index zero?
(I need this to prevent plagiarism by the Tune Finder).
It seems to. But I didn't realize the Tune Finder was a plagiarist.
