I was hoping to be able to use this to implement the mid-repeat variant 
notation, e.g.  

|: A A | B B | [1 c c] | [2 d d] | e e :|

but unfortunately, abcm2ps also puts in a thick barline after the ']' 
instead of just closing the bracket.  I also note that as of 3.7.0, it 
puts in "... a double bar at end of line when next line starts with a 
repeat bar."

I find this (new to abcm2ps) business of adding in notational elements 
not specified in the abc a bit disturbing. If a player program needs to 
insist on "correct" notation of repeats or whatever, fine, but a 
typesetting program shouldn't care. Any way to turn this off, Jef?

cheers,
