Ok, here is my second suggestion on line continuations.
Why don't you have a directive to specify the line breaking
character. I know that you have an explicit line breaking
character (!), and you have an implicit one (new line).
I would suggest allowing the user to override the implicit
charact
Hello everyone,
I am writing an ABC parser and just finished reading the
entire 2.0 draft IV standard. I also just finished reading
the abcusers list archive - I read most of the posts relating
to the standards. I had two questions/suggestions for the

Hi,
This is certainly possible with abc2mtex---I've done it several times,
and it can look quite good. What do you mean by "Can't make them work?"
Can you be more specific? Is the problem printing? Previewing?
Seeing as it's TeX, there are lots of possible problems...
One possibility c

I have a collection of ABC tunes that I play frequently and would like
to make a printed format of these in a nice book like format. I am

Hi again,
Maybe someone could state shortly why distinguishing between 'music'

This is exactly what ABC 1.6 tried to do, and it was
found to be overly complex and unclear in practice.
The [...] syntax is a much cleaner and clearer way for

The quirk I'm wrestling with today is Continuation Lines, which seems
to be
the biggest single area (and the biggest can of worms on the list
