RE: [abcusers] skink, java and |
If there is no "|" available, perhaps you could use a substitute character (like a / or \ or ~) and do one "search and replace" at the end of your editing so you only have to worry about the "|" once? To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html

The free programs at: http://world.std.com/~gdallal/UKE.HTM can produce the type output you mention.

Hi, (please view this with a monospaced font) With the modern software available you can obviously print melody without lyrics, print one single voice out of a multivoice file etc. It normally should also be possible to use the same abc file to print out something like this: (1) good version: / / // || C / F / | C / / / | It's been a || hard day's | night and I've been | Bb / / / | C / / / | working like a | dog | (2) alternate version: CF C It's been a hard day's night and I've been Bb C Working like a dog Or some other format that a band can use when some of them say they don't necessarily need the notes (the bass player for example). Do you see the possibility of adding such a feature, or something like it to already existing software and have the result printed out as a PS file? ???

A most interesting software indeed and a very good idea. They produce good output, but so far as I can see they do not read an abc-file that has chords, melody line and lyrics in it. It reads a file consisting of lyrics with chords over it. That is, however, the file I wanted to make. Ulf To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
Re: [abcusers] Make only lyrics and chords from abc?
I think it should be possible to do this. There was some talk at one point about 'invisible' rests. I think the best way to do it would be to add a field to the V: header indicating that notes are to change to chicken scratches. Probably something similar could be done for drum notation. - Original Message - From: "Ulf Bro" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, December 12, 2004 8:20 AM Subject: [abcusers] Make only lyrics and chords from abc?

Can you create that character in some other text editor (Word, Notepad, TextEdit), and then either assign it to a keyboard macro, or just paste it in when you need it?
