If you would like to take a look at: http://www.maxwellplace.demon.co.uk/pandemonium/guitars.html There is a paragraph with a link to 'Last Words from a Foreign Field' which is an example of a GIF image (26K for a full A4 page - not bad, that) created from SongWorks II, with chords and lyrics.

[scots-l] Music-writing program?

Hi All, No, this is not a question about Artificial Intelligence and computer-generated music. It's rather simpler. A friend is trying to persuade a very talented Scottish Dancing pianist and composer to publish some of her music, and said if he had a reasonable program he'd offer to typeset it

[scots-l] Crieff Folk Activities in the 1960s

I've been researching more into Crieff's involvement with folk music, and I'm amazed at the descriptions from 1964, when more folk-related activities happened during a few months than happen now over three years. One event was the first birthday of a filling station, which was celebrated by a cro
