Thanks for the pointer, Eric. The 2.11.3 version is from http://moinejf.free.fr/, and listed there as the "last stable release". Actually, I wasn't even aware of the abc.sf.net page. The links on the abcplus homepage, http://abcplus.sourceforge.net/, only supply precompiled binaries for Windoze. (I am currently working on my Windoze box because I upgraded my Linux box to Mandrake 8.2 and can't get anything related to MIDI working on it.) The links on http://moinejf.free.fr/ contain tarballs of source files along with a makefile for MinGW, and that's what I've been working with. I just failed to check that page for updated versions, as I thought there would be some offline discussion before my patch got assimilated. There is now a version 3.1.0 available on http://moinejf.free.fr/, which I just downloaded and built. It has my page numbering patch in it, but still no !mp! decorations. I need !mp! for my choral music, and I can't figure out why it dissappeared from version 3. The version 2 changelog has it appearing back in 2.2.7, and it is nicely handled in deco.c of 2.11.3, but not in deco.c of 3.1.0, and running 3.1.0 gives error messages. So I guess I'll be using the older version for now. > > In fact since I need to have the page numbers at the bottom, I > find conveniant to use the perl script "pspage" done by Christoph > Dalitz. > Thanks, I'll check this out. I initially thought I'd add some options for page numbering at the bottom as well, but that would collide with the "footer" facility in abcm2ps, and virtually all of the choral scores I am trying to emulate use numbering at the top anyway.
