Hello everybody,
I'm glad to announce this new release of abcm2ps, which includes many
bug fixes (thank you, Frank, your little 'Fuga in G mol' helped a lot).
Aside from bugs, this version now offers a same voice to be printed
on many staves.

Here are some information about abcm2ps and tclabc/tkabc.
Both are developped on PC/Linux and checked on Sparc/Solaris. They are

(i.e: KO on DOS, except with small files).

Any ideas why this changed?
Looking at your files, it seems the page format is A4 instead of US

This does not work yet :(. You may use a slur; it looks quite the

Write a monitor process that monitors your abcm2ps processes. Any
process that has been at a high CPU for more than X time, kill it. Or
modify abcm2ps to include a monitor thread

Hello Atte,
Is it possible to print something like 3/8 = 1/2 (where 3/8 would be
printed as a dotted quarter note and 1/2 is printed as a half note)
above the staff with abcm2ps? If so, how?

Hi everybody,
John Walsh warned me about a problem when using the free version of
RoPS (PostScript level 1 only) with stable releases of abcm2ps
(3.7.xx). Here is how to make it work:
- create a file (say 'ps1.abc') containing:
%%postscript /rectstroke{
%%postscript4 2 roll M 1
