I joined ,got licensed, whatever, to use ABC music, as in the Village music project. I dont understand what I have to do to convert from ABC to stave notation. Im not set up to play directly onto keyboards, just want the dots. Have asked and not understood, or been told carefully. If anyone has the time to lead me through step by step Id be very grateful

Pavane's program HARMONY will also do lots of stuff for you - including chords, etc. Small fee, powerful program.

I am currently working on a completely new version, with MDI (Multiple document interface), so you can work on more than one tune at a time.

So if anyone has anything they want added to HARMONY while I am doing this rewrite, please let me know.

(I also hope to get rid of some of the existing restrictions which were due to the way it was originally written for MSDOS.)
