Do you mean it just has the fonts? And that you still have to go
through the ridiculous 'nonstandard time signature' procedure to set up
microtones properly?
You must have meant "nonstandard KEY signature" but no, you don't have
to do this. You can enter the half-sharps and whatnot as articulations,
and they will be automatically placed and spaced (except for chords,
yikes!) though you won't get microtonal playback. (Frankly, the
barriers involved in correct microtonal playback of harmony instruments
is so great I'm not sure it is doable in normal MIDI. Individual notes
in single lines, of course, are fine.)
I greatly suspect that MakeMusic is not going to waste time
implementing an improvement of something that is already doable with no
great kludging, at least in print.
