What struck me immediately is Owain's use of the word "tuplets" for
"non-binary division of the beat" when only a Finale user has ever
heard or would understand such a term. An excellent example of a word
springing into being because it was needed, kind of like a shoemaking
elf from a fairy tale...
[I'm joking, of course. The US will never refer to the game where
you kick the ball with your feet as "football."]
Nice one. 8-) Kind of like in Toronto where you park on a driveway
and drive on a parkway. Except of course at "rush" hour (odd name
considering the speed of the traffic), when everyone is pretty much
parked on the parkway, too. 8-)
