Now that he has cleaned house, maybe he can get busy with volume 2 of the 
History of the Lute. Please, Doug.

[LUTE] Re: Mac & lute typesetting

[Samuel Lawson]

A few might be interested to know that the new version of 
MuseScore has pretty o-kay lute tab capabilities (with 
playback). It's not as good as Fronimo, but it's free and 
works great for 6-course, while 7 & 8 course is managable 
if the bass lines are not too active (for 8 course, you 
have to write with a full 8-line staff, then hide the extra lines 
and write in the slash notation in text -- yeah, that part's 
not so great, but it works).

It's available for windows, max, and linux:

Slainte!

There have been discussion of having to remap keyboard layouts in order to run
Stringwalker, Django or Fronimo on a Mac. The good news is that I've plugged an
Adesso windows keyboard into my MacPro and everything seems to work the way it
is supposed to, both Insert and Delete keys work perfectly in combination with
the Windows/Command key.

Enjoy!

   Doug Smith asked me to post this response to Ed Dubrow's request for a
   Volume 2 to the Lute History book.
   Nancy
   Thanks for the vote of confidence, Ed, but it ain't gonna happen. There
   are too many other projects on my desk that for me are more engaging
   right now. Not by chance did I step down from the JLSA (Journal of the
   Lute Society of America) editorship.
   A History of the Lute in the Baroque Era might be a good dissertation
   topic for an analytically-minded PhD student of musicology, though it's
   broader than usual. The structural model exists. It's an almost
   guaranteed publication by a major press (Oxford or other univ. press)
   with little or no alteration right out of the chute if done right,
   unlike most PhD theses. I'd happily serve as an informal adviser, but
   other long-standing research and composition projects have my attention
   at this point.
