Thanks for your thoughts. My current thinking is to just disable save, which would indeed give you what you want. It looks like I will be implementing this Saturday so I just have some time for some last minute thoughts and changes of mind [looks at clock - oh, it *is* Saturday - well, after I've had some sleep is what I meant]. Thanks for your thoughts.
Jeesh, they could even use the Muse2 "invent some chords to go along with this melody" to harmonise Edinburgh (sorry, "Embro") street cries!

Given my GIFs and sound files, they can already print and play music without going near ABC, let alone Muse's native features, so whether you include printing doesn't matter. What I *would* like is the ability to display on-screen and play back tunes after being manipulated by Muse, in particular after transposing them (for singers whose voices don't fit the keys I've provided). If people want to save the transpositions, they can pay. =================== <http://www.purr.demon.co.uk/jack/> =================== To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
