I need some pointers for music typesetting software for the Macintosh (or Unix/X, if such exists). I'm not interested in waveform synthesis, MIDI, or anything on the sound side of things aside from a simple playback for verification. I just want a solid typesetter that I can enter notation into quickly, sweet and simple with one exception: I'll need a few extra symbols to mark some blues note bendings. I'd like to be cheap about it, to the degree that something in the public domain just might make me happy. And I'd like a decent laserprint, with lyrics & guitar markings. Any recommendations? Followups to brand@ils.nwu.edu, since I don't read these groups. Summaries in two weeks. much appreciated, matt brand
