April 1 2012

Abc2midi: new feature. Introduced a new option (-TT)  to tune the key of
A above or below 440.0 Hz but less than a semitone. The output MIDI
file will re-tune to that frequency. The purpose of this feature
is to accommodate some instruments like the accordian which are
not tune exactly to 440.0 Hz.

April 03 2012

Abc2midi -tuning. Changed to the lower frequency limit to 414.9 to
permit A=415 Hz, a common tuning for Baroque music. The bend
variable is still limited between 0 and 16383.

April 15 2012

Abc2midi - lyrics. The function checksyllables() in genmidi.c emits
warnings even when there do not seem to be any errors in the
placement of the lyrics. I do not know how to fix this problem,
or even whether a fix exists. Furthermore, the warnings do not
appear useful as they are not very specific. Users can easily
check the placement of the syllables by viewing the score produced
by abcm2ps.  The error message in checksyllables() is now suppressed
except when running abc2midi in verbose mode.
