As a time signature 1/4 has no sense, but 3/4 and 6/8 are different things. In the standard musical notation both numbers are written one above the other, and no "division" line is used. Note that they just *look* like a fraction when written in text form, like here, because it's not easy to write one above the other. 3/4 is read as "three by four", not "three quarters" -at least in my country- so there is even less confussion. -- Gabriel Genellina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
