%%%%  Additional notes on construction:
%%%%  Each line in this file is a line on the staff.
%%%%  For eighth notes, spacing between note letters corresponds to bars.
%%%%  Accidentals are denoted by ^, =, _
%%%%  - is a tie or slur
%%%%  Single lines and double lines sometimes seem to have meaning
%%%%     (eg repeats or key signature changes) as well as just display.
%%%%  No extra line spaces! Each line should begin with something.
%%%%  Getting a key signature switch right is a pain.  
%%%%  (See Chorus Jig for an example.)
%%%%  The new key signature must be on a line by itself,
%%%%  the next measure must start with a bar, 
%%%%  and the preceding line cannot close with a double bar.
%%%%  Or, embed the key signature with backslashes.
%%%%  X == number within the file
%%%%  T == title
%%%%  C == copyright or author
%%%%  M == meter
%%%%  L == length of shortest note (count of one)
%%%%  Q == tempo
%%%%  -- yaps wants M,L,Q in that precise order
%%%%  K == key
