Re: getting rid of ' and , in older scores
jEdit, or any decent editor for that matter, has a 'search/replace' function. Can't you simply search for ' and , and replace with nothing? This would cost you a few seconds per file. I imagine that you could also use sed to do this even faster. -David Father Gordon Gilbert wrote: Hi all, I've quite a number of older scores I've worked on over the years, starting with version 2.2.0 (and some from Mutopia even older than that.

RE: getting rid of ' and , in older scores
But if you remove all instances of ' and , then you're assuming that all notes are less than a fifth away from the preceding note - most unlikely.

Yes, but having removed all the ticks, I can then compile and reinsert ticks where necessary -- probably not an odious task. I'll try it ...

I wrote them all with the default (ees, fis, etc) because that was easier in earlier versions that trying to do \include. But while I understand that's now a whole lot easier, I'll have to take a bit of time to run the learning curve -- but I do intend to do so sometime ...
