I was tempted to bring this up earlier, but was trying to be good and stick with John Chamber's one-step-at-a-time concept. However, I guess it wouldn't hurt to put in another plug for addressing this issue. The other big problem for pipe music is the lack of a mechanism for reusing endings later in a tune. However, given a means to mark an ending (or mid-repeat "conditional material") with arbitrary text, it should be easy to get the tadpoles to look right even if it's prohibitively complex to get a player program to deal with it. cheers, Ewan Macpherson To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
