Several years ago I tried finding some reasonable software tools for music and was not at all impressed with what I could find. Great that you decided to make a better one!

A long time ago I ran across ABC music notation, typically associated with old time or traditional music. I wonder if there could be an import filter that works with ABC notation?

That's really interesting. When I was exploring implementing standard notation, I also came across ABC notation. If/when I take on standard notation, I think ABC notation would be very reasonable to implement for import/export. Thanks for the feedback!
