TKmicroabc - alpha release

Hello,

I just uploaded TKmicroabc:
http://geocities.yahoo.com.br/hfmlacerda/misc/tkmicroabc-alpha.tgz

It is a graphical interface to control microabc and related programs
to make microtonal scores and MIDI files in ABC notation.
http://br.geocities.com/hfmlacerda/abc/microabc-about.html
http://br.geocities.com/hfmlacerda/abc/microabc.html

TKmicroabc is a tcl/tk script. Currently it is expected to work only
on GNU+Linux (or maybe also in some other Unix-like OS). Though, being
just a TCL/TK script, TKmicroabc can be adapted for other systems.
http://www.tcl.tk/software/tcltk/8.5.html

This is an 'alpha' version, for testings. It includes some examples
(inside the examples/ folder) as well as binaries of microabc,
abc2alias, abcpp, abcm2ps and abc2midi, the basic required
programs. All these programs are free software under GNU GPL Version
2.

I would like to read comments and suggestions.

I should also ask for technical help on tcl/tk, as TKmicroabc is just
my second program in this language.*** I have problems with the 'exec'
command. For instance, I cannot make '&&' or file names with spaces
work with 'exec'. Also, I need to learn proper ways to group variables
for user preferences and to save the setup (project).

*** The first one is this game:
http://geocities.yahoo.com.br/hfmlacerda/misc/tkmmbis.tcl.txt
(Rename it with extension .tcl, instead of .txt; geocities does not
allow tcl files...)

Cheers,
Hudson Lacerda

Hi Hudson!

Are there any screen shots?

Hi Carl,

Here are some images:
http://br.geocities.com/hfmlacerda/misc/tkmicroabc/TKmicroabc.html

BTW, I missed to say in the README.txt file that a binary version of
abcpp (by Guido Gonzato) is also included. So it should also be copied
to a directory in the $PATH.
