Well just to add more fuel to the fire. I am curious how all this will the ability to analyse lilypond scores? I like the flexibily of the various ways of entering notes, but mostly want to know exactly whats happening. The abc notation idea is that anything within a set octave will always be sam

I certainly recognize the problem of having to correct a few octave mistakes when entering a score, but I think the general idea of relative mode is so intuitive that I don't have to spend much time and effort while typing in the music. However, you are certainly not alone, since a new octave check
