nnels limit is not intrinsic to the file format, and more
channels
can be defined, even if some MIDI players might fail to read them.
Lilypond
does use these additional channels.

I use. Then, after showing Lilypond and its input format,
depending on whether he/she is computer literate, I am told
that I spend too much time with computers (which is obviously
true) or that I come from a different planet altogether (which is
perhaps true as well :-) )

Since we already have the ability to declare
