To begin, I would like to thank all of those who replied to my original
request about scoring programs for the ST.  To recap, I asked for
recommendations about a good composition program that would produce good
printed output, with sound output optional.

By and far, the largest number of replies I received recommended Hybrid
Arts EZ-Score Plus.  The output on 24-pin printers is good, and the program
has the ability to play back through the sound chip or MIDI.  Since this
program can be had for around $100 US, it is probably the one I'm going to
get.

Another recommendation was the ScoreST Music DTP program in the Jan. 1990
issue of Start.  Since I receive Start, I tried it out.  It seems to be quite
useful, though it has no playback capability.  However, I have not been able
to get really good printouts from this program, though I'm still working on
modifying the printer driver.  This program is definately the cheapest, though.

The other recommendation made was from Take Control in England, and the name of
the program is Music DTP.  It was highly recommended, but seems a bit pricey
for me.

That about covers it.  Again, thanks to those who replied!
