It's a hidden Finale capabilty to print music which advanced theorists
look on as culturally backwards -- other notation programs simply refuse
to print it at all, instead printing Hah! Hah! Hah! on

Sure, but I'm printing on the back of transparencies. :) :)

You should see the carrots.

It (barely) worked in Boston, on 512k and MacPlus, with crashes, of course.
Winter in Boston is pretty windy. My ex-roommate who was from Alaska
said you feel less cold in Alaska since you don't have windy

Not much potential for that problem in Nashville, although when it comes to
how southerners drive in the stuff, an inch of snow might as well be a
blizzard.
Yes, Finale 1.0 had lots of problems. I'd have to say speedy note entry via
midi kbd. kept me going. That made getting the notes in the

The global warming had the result that large parts of Sweden almost
never get any snow nowadays.

I can't believe I copied out my entire Master's Thesis (87 pages of a
wind ensemble score) by hand, using india ink and Cameo paper. I did
have the advantage of a hi-tech electric eraser, which sometimes left
holes in the paper when pressed too hard. Talk about another century!

Yes. And then there's the semi-transparent vellum, and razor blades.

Yes, that's what I meant by Cameo paper. It was an excellent company
out of Hollywood, which provided the vellums as well as printing
services. I remember averaging 4 pages per day. I also used a nifty
little gizmo, the name of which I forget, to write in expressions, etc.
It had a tail pin
Egads, you're correct ... that was the 20th Century. How quickly we
forget. Yes, in addition to my composition, I, of course, had to write
an analysis of it ... about 40 pages, but it was just text with a few
musical examples ... easy by comparison to the score work.

Nah. That was sophisticated. A cloned Apple II+ with Mountain
Computer sound cards and a partially built Syntauri keyboard -- pre
midi of course. 20 seconds of music at a time then recorded and
spliced together -- that was when work was work!

Yeah, things weren't really that bad, I guess. I was receiving much more
from Finale than I was needing from it. Of course that didn't keep us all
from poking, prodding and dreaming, not necessarily in that order, toward a
new and improved Finale (still doesn't).
Many, many slowww,

Thanks ... because I could not have afforded to have anyone else do all
that work ... although I did have the analysis typed by a professional
