I believe they did exist (*cough* lisp *cough* :-)) > To use SCORE you literally have to memorize that p2 means "staff > number", p3 means "horizontal position", p4 means "start vertical > position", p5 might mean "glyph size as a percentage of default", etc. this is both a reminiscence of the tabular nature of old FORTRAN and the Music V parameters field idea. In fact, at first SCORE was a preprocessor for Music V (or whatever Music N it was at the time) and was developed as a notation program latter. You can still find these parameters fields (i.e. p1, p2, ... pn) in csound and score-like preprocessors for csound like score11.
