Ken, I totally understand. I wasn't at all suggesting that you should tray Py for a commercial program. I was just addressing your thought that commercial programs didn't or couldn't do this.
Personally, I would love to even try Py, because I'm a karaoke hobbyist. However, I don’t know much of anything about code. I don’t know how to compile a Windows version of etc.......:( -----Original Message----- From: Ken Williams [mailto:k...@kensmail.uk] Sent: Tuesday, October 24, 2017 6:10 AM To: karaokeamer...@gmail.com; pykaraoke-discuss@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Pykaraoke-discuss] PyKaraoke That sounds better, but personally I much prefer tinkering with pykaraoke to try and make it do as I want, I am a hobbyist software writer, so to actually buy something I could not then re-write would bore me. I have never really used GitHub, so i will have to figure that out and post my changes. I assume I start my own repo called pykaraoke then somehow link it to the official one? I really have no idea. On holiday at present so using a smaller computer and no printer, working with a printer is something we take for granted, but writing code with no printer I find hard.
