How to use the Program:

A typical output (v1.2) of the program with the default options in Windows (here enter was pressed in each option):

G:\randomabc>randomabc11.exe

Welcome to abc Random Score Creator!

ces only, 6=Guitar fretted extended):6
Selected notes set: 6

Number of measures (default 54, max 81 for ABC import in MuseScore):54
Measures selected: 54

Select note value 1=hole, 2=half, 4=quarter (default 4):4

Convert ABC format in abc2xml: http://abc2xml.appspot.com/

G:\randomabc>

In the above example we used the sixth notation option set (Guitar fretted extended) randomly put in 54 measures in quarter notes. The output file was "newscore.abc". It is advisable that you break every 6 measures for better readability (Plugins -> Break Every X Measures).

In the attachment section there is a sample screenshot of myscore.abc (created with v1.0) loaded in MuseScore in Ubuntu linux.

Sample score files can be found in sample_scores.zip.
