[abcusers] BarFly update

[Phil Taylor]

There are new versions available for BarFly Classic (v1.31) and
BarFly Carbon (v1.3b4).

No new features this time, but some serious bugs fixed in the
Carbon version, and some minor ones fixed in the Classic.

[abcusers] Inverted quadruplets

[Forgeot Eric]

in Abc notation, for playing 5 notes in the time of 4 we can use
quintuplet. Now, let think I want the opposite, playing 4 notes in
the time of 5. How can I do that ? I used for ex :
F,5/4F5/4C5/4F5/4 instead of F,FCF . It seems correct this way,
but some applications seems to complain (abcm2ps for ex.).
Abc2midi seems to play it correctly. Is there a specific notation
(probably not in abc) but for music in general for this kind of
effect ?


ex :

M:none
L:1/8

without this specific effect it should have been :

Writing F5/4 will cause problems for most display programs, since
the time value 5/4 can't be displayed as a single note in staff
notation.  Player programs will generally have no problem with it
though.

You can do what you want using the extended tuplet notation:

(4:5:4F,FCF

should work.
