I know this was mentioned earlier, but please recall that some of us play from ABC as a score, and not as an interstitial format to be used to generate staff music, tablature, or MIDI files.
In fact, I find myself often going from staff music (which I can read, albeit slowly) to ABC (which I can read much more rapidly). For me at least, to the extent that the 2.0 standard sacrifices human readability for machine formatting it becomes less useful. Regards, --Dave
