Friends:
Given a couple of ~.MID files of hymns, and a several scores of others.
I was asked to create files the _tunes_ (not lyrics), compatible with
2k. All were about the same length 10 to 20 measures in length. The
ones I had scores of, I entered, starting with a document without
libraries, adding staves and the notes, and five text blocks each. The
ones where I was supplied ~.MID files, I imported into Finale.
What was surprising was the difference in file size: the ones I started
with a empty document were 20 - 25 K in size, about 1/5th the size of
the ones I imported! Getting rid of all of th expressions and
articulations from the libraries, and extraneous text blocks only
reduced the size of the imported files by a few K.
Amazed me.
