Thanks for the link!

    When I write scores, I always use pencil--I prefer a mechanical pencil so I don't have to sharpen all the time. I don't use a computer program, cause I've never found one which has all the symbols & Music directives I need--I'd end up having to write lots of stuff in anyway on those printouts.

    Golly, and to think that the old masters in the olden days had to precisely copy their beginner pianoforte (or clavichord or harpsichord) book before they would be allowed to take piano lessons. There was no white out, no printed manuscript paper, & ink didn't erase then, either.
