This is what I posted in the NewMusicBox discussion a few weeks ago. This is
what these programs can do, instead of mucking around in 'little refinements'
-- come into the 21st century:

"...It’s a far cry from the promise of notation software when Finale first
arrived a quarter-century ago.

"My wishlist for notation software includes full vector graphical editing
(right down to bending staves and having their contents follow), full audio
editing capability linked to Sonar, Audition and Vegas (and whatever
equivalent Mac folks use), integration where possible with Pd/AudioMulch/Max,
pen (handwritten notation) input and editing, and integration/scripting of
algorithmic and generative routines."
