Hi there,

I suspect this is probably old, old territory, but I'm having trouble finding 
(highland) bagpipe-specific info on ABC - everything seems to be a virtual 
forest of broken links.

I'm using abc2ps and have two or three 'issues' I'd like to try and work 
around, if possible.

Just using the scotland.abc supplied with abc2ps, I see it prints all the 
gracenotes with ickle phrase marks, slurs, whatever they're called (OK, I'm a 
piper, so shoot me :) ).  Is there any way of killing these off?  I've done a 
wee (note wee) bit of C in the past, so if it involves a bit of hacking code, 
that's fine (i've already tried messing with some of the #defines, but got 
nowhere.  I'd also like to turn the single gracenotes into 'normal' 
gracenotes, ie with the three tails.

I'm also having difficulty with a more 'normal' issue: I can't get the (same) 
tune to print out in regular lines of four bars.  I've tried

./abc2ps scotland.abc -B 4 -a 1.0 -o

but it seems to make no difference.  Anything further that can be done?

Oh, is this list archived anywhere?  Obviously, I'll stop asking silly 
questions if I can find an archive and abuse that instead :)

Cheers,
Calum
