Dear Interested Readers,I am in the process of putting together a beginner's guide to submitting tunes to Mudcat, which I will circulate before going to print. This is I guess a kind of cook-book that Gargoyle refers to.
With regard to the bouncing ball provided by Songwright, I would respectfully ask whether this facility is still required? I an hesitant to extrapolate my own experience, but as an avid and grateful user of the off-line database, I find that using ABCMUS1.1 to Import the Songwright files is very fast and flexible. I have never found the lack of synchronicity between tunes and lyrics to be a major problem, beyond (say) the second hearing of a new song.
Dick, my motivation here is to make life less complicated for you and the many others that we may encourage to submit and missing tunes.
Regards John
