As of Finale 2006, separate "arco" expressions for each instrument
are not necessary -- HP automatically triggers the correct GM patch
or (when using GPO) keyswitch.

GM distinguishes the arco sounds, so long before FinWin 2004, which
I currently use, I had an expression library with one pizz. and
four arco expressions. The violin, viola, 'cello and bass arcos
were distinguished by zero, one, two, and three spaces before the
word. Nowadays I would append vn, va, vc and cb in non-printing style.
