# EasyABC
2-
EasyABC
4+
5+
An open source ABC editor for Windows, OSX and Linux. It is published under the GNU Public License.
6+
7+
## Features
8+
9+
- Good ABC standard coverage thanks to internal use of abcm2ps and abc2midi
10+
- Syntax highlighting
11+
- Zoom support
12+
- Import MusicXML, MIDI and Noteworthy Composer files (the midi to abc translator is custom made in order to produce legible abc code with more sensible - beams than the typical midi2abc output).
13+
- Export to MIDI, SVG, PDF (single tune or whole tune book).
14+
- Select notes by clicking on them and add music symbols by using drop-down menus in the toolbar.
15+
- Play the active tune as midi (using SoundFont)
16+
- See which notes are currently playing
17+
- Contextual guidance (ABC Assist)
18+
- Record songs from midi directly in the program (no OSX support at the moment).
19+
- Just press Rec, play on your midi keyboard and then press Stop.
20+
- The musical score is automatically updated as you type in ABC code.
21+
- Support for unicode (utf-8) and other encodings.
22+
- Transpose and halve/double note length functionality (using abc2abc)
23+
- An abcm2ps format file can easily be specified in the settings.
24+
- ABC fields in the file header are applied to every single tune in a tune book.
25+
- Automatic alignment of bars on different lines
26+
- Available in Italian, French, Danish, Swedish, Dutch and English
27+
- Functions to generate incipits, sort tunes and renumber X: fields.
28+
- Musical search function - search for note sequences irrespectively of key, etc.
29+
30+
## Credits - software components used by EasyABC
31+
32+
- abcm2ps for converting ABC code to note images (developed/maintained by Jean-François Moine)
33+
- abc2midi for converting ABC code to midi (by James Allwright, maintained by Seymour Shlien)
34+
- xml2abc for converting from MusicXML to ABC (by Willem Vree)
35+
- abc2xml for converting from ABC to ABC (by Willem Vree)
36+
- nwc2xml for converting from Noteworthy Composer format to ABC via XML (by James Lee)
37+
- wxPython cross-platform user-interface framework
38+
- scintilla for the text editor used for ABC code
39+
- python midi package for the initial parsing of midi files to be imported
40+
- pygame (which wraps portmidi) for real-time midi input
41+
- FluidSynth for playing using SoundFonts
42+
- Many thanks to the translators: Valerio Pelliccioni (italian), Bendix Rødgaard (danish), Frédéric Aupépin (french). Universal binaries of abcm2ps and abc2midi for OSX are available thanks to Chuck Boody.

EasyABC comes with setup.py to create easy_abc.exe and setupEasyABC.iss to create an installer.
4+
You first need to be able to run easy_abc.py using Python.

See using_EasyABC_in_Windows.txt for that.

easy_abc comes with setup.py which is used to create easy_abc.exe.

Then you will also need to install on your computer the program Inno Setup 6 and the python package cx_Freeze:

And cx_Freeze can be installed using:

python -m pip install --upgrade cx_Freeze

The package also comes with setup.iss which is a script for running
32-
the Inno Setup Compiler which is freely available. The setup.iss
33-
file should no longer be used since it assumes a build/exe.win32-26/
34-
created by Python2.6 rather than Python2.7. Instead you should
35-
use setupEasy07.iss which I created recently. You will also
36-
require Inno Setup installed on your PC. See the header of text
37-
file setupEasy07.iss.

I also created an install script for the "nullsoft scriptable install

system 2.46" (NSIS) before discovering Inno Setup. I have left the
41-
script here easyabc.nsi but I now prefer Inno Setup which appears
42-
to be the standard.
