The logic flaws already pointed out in the existing entries in
those files, to say nothing about the U.S.-centric terminology or
about the omissions, are merely another reason why I never use the
Setup Wizard. But if I could easily change things to match what I
work with mostly, and make it easy to add new entries, all from
within Finale, I might actually begin using that thing.
Actually, you can easily edit the Instrument.txt using any text
editor. The problem is if you make a mistake! I haven't bothered to
try yet, but now I mentioned it and have time...
i have already proposed this to MM (you should too!); with new
"features" added with many versions, it is not impossible but a
serious PITA to upgrade an existing instrument.txt file... i edited
many of the names and abbreviations years ago, for example, so i
can't just use the new file that comes with a new versions.
