terrific, thanks for the great work!
As I decided not to get into cello (had gotten one recently and found it all tooo different from fiddle...) so I am quite happy with the file you already sent me!
But definitely I´ll be interested in the second book!!!
Have you ever thought of making photostat copies of the books (in pdf) and getting them out on CD? In England there is a guy that does that. He sells them for very little on E-Bay.... (for example the Orpheus Caledonius)....
It would be a neat thing to sort of have the original then... might be less work, too. And the acrobat reader can be downloaded for free.
have a great day,
Eva

I finally completed my abc transcription of the full version (i.e.,
including the cello line) of Petrie's first collection. Anyone who would
like a copy of the file, let me know. I find that the 2-voice code is a
little problematic; it works great on BarFly but needs a little editing for
correct viewing using abc2ps (as used on the concertina.net tune-o-tron
online converter for example), and won't play on abc2midi (which the
tune-o-tron uses) at all; I haven't tried it on any other abc readers or
players. I'm disappointed; I'd hoped that abc was more standardized, and I
didn't expect these problems with the code. However I'm hoping someone can
make use of this; some of the cello parts are really nice! Now, on to
Petrie's 2nd collection! -Steve
