This software is part of the GNU Project.

abcsh is a shell for processing ABC music notation files.  It could form the foundation of a larger system for music composition and orchestration using ABC music notation as a means of representing musical performance.   The shell hopes to handle routine ABC transformation likes part extraction, transposition, part merging etc.  It  is also designed in a way that you can access the ABC notation file content form embedded scripting languages.

Supports ABC music notation version 2.0

I've begun a review of the existing documentation and code, and am looking at revising/updating some particular points.  At the moment I'm primarily interested in some of the ways we can manipulate/analyze ABC notation.  I think there are some powerful ways the existing toolset could be adapted to provide a "swiss army knife" of music creation and analysis, and am grateful to be on board.  Stay tuned.

Need to get this out of moth balls

Haven't done much work on this since this time last year.  Need to get this out of moth balls.  Fortunetly my experiences between then and now will add to this project.

Prototype 0.04 now has a crude interactive mode working

Interactive (-i) mode now is working.  Code is pretty crude but will do for prototype.  Still need to cleanup data structures and wrapper native methods for Guile script access.  Will have to update the documentation soon to include instructions on interactive mode.
