Hello, Has anyone been able to get abc2ps working under debian? I had it working fine under redhat 7, but I am trying to switch to debian, and it appears to be producing bad pdf files. pstopnm gives me the following errors (which appear to be originating from ghostscript): pstopnm: Warning: no

Hi Simon, Glad to hear you like it too :-) As you've probably noticed, Phil have already come up with the source, so you don't have to bother about that. I could always use more information about the tune, though. Frank [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Hello Frank, > > This is one of my favori

Try using Abcmus by Henrik Norbeck (home.swipnet.se/~w-11382/abcmus/ ). It produces nice midi output (it's shareware, but really worth it, yes, I think it's the most reliable) Abc2midi can do this too, but I don't remember if it support multiple voices (Abcmus does). In order to play multiple vo

[abcusers] Folk band

This hasn't got anything to do with ABC, but I thought I'd take the chance asking some of the British traditional music experts here for some help. You see, I've accidentally written some band arrangements to a couple of English, Irish and Scottish tunes. And since I'm not exactly an expert on th
