>>The & operator may be used to temporarily overlay >>several voices within one measure. The & operator
I can understand this when it comes to (temporary) voices, with several melodies. But sometimes it concerns only chords, for ex. a chord with two wholes and one with a half, it seems less logic to use this kind of notation (would " A B c d e f g a & x6 A2 " allowed then ?), so my question is will the notation with for ex. " A B c d e f [A2g] a " still be possible, in addition to the & possibility (this [A2g] was implemented in abcm2ps, andI think Abacus can handle this too) ? It seems so obvious and logical it's strange it wasn't from the beginning of Abc, and for chords it's more readable than this & command (again this example of "A B c d e f [A2g] a", we can see at once what note is with the other) About pure voice overlay, I think also the option by Richard is even better than &, I find it more readable >[v:1] A B c d e f g a [v:2] A A A A A A A A [v:3] A G F E D C B, A,|] ___________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? -- Une adresse @yahoo.fr gratuite et en français !
