What's new in Philip's Music Writer 4.28

Feb 10, 2014
  • Two bugs are fixed: stretching or shearing fonts did not work on 64-bit systems, and under some circumstances a spurious "line too long after macro expansion" error could occur.

New in Philip's Music Writer 4.27 (Dec 5, 2013)

  • A multiple rest bar can now be stretched or (slightly) squashed.
  • In text strings, all characters in the Latin-A Extended code page are now accessible.

New in Philip's Music Writer 4.26 (Mar 13, 2013)

  • Some infelicities in the code have been tidied up, and two small new facilities are added: old-style multirest bars and the ability to suppress only one of a pair of warning key and time signatures.

New in Philip's Music Writer 4.25 (Jan 10, 2013)

  • Two small new features are added: the ability to move tremolo lines vertically, and interpretation of simple tremolos when generating MIDI.
  • One small source infelicity has been tidied up.

New in Philip's Music Writer 4.24 (Mar 24, 2012)

  • The bugs that are fixed are relatively minor.

New in Philip's Music Writer 4.22 (Dec 21, 2010)

  • A few bugs have been mended and a few new features have been added (staccatissimo accent, bracketing for accents, and "end" barline in the middle of a piece).

New in Philip's Music Writer 4.20 (Feb 24, 2009)

  • The code has been tidied and perhaps made 64-bit compatible (though the author cannot test this).
  • The documentation has been thoroughly revised.
  • A few new features have been added, including basic support for half sharps and flats and for right-to-left typesetting.
