00100		Any motive may be made to go in retrograde motion by inserting
00200	a minus sign after the "@". The retrograde feature may be used in conjunction
00300	with the number feature just explained.

00800		Y(Q/E/)/@-Y.5; Here the motive will repeat as S//E/.
00900		              (Half the time values and backwards.)
01000		              
01100		With notes only inversions of motives are possible by inserting
01200	the dollar sign ($). Again, this will be a visual, not necessarily a musical
01300	inversion. All accidentals will remain unchanged.

01800		At "*" the notes will be C4/B3/AF/C4/. Then we will have G4/F/EF/G/.

02000		Retrograde may be used with inversion, but be very careful to check
02100	your results.

03100		All the sorts of material entered under "IN" by typing directly to
03200	the MS program can instead be assembled in external edit files and then 
03300	entered by file name. For longer, more complicated lines of input this has
03400	several advantages.  The main advantage is that when errors occur (and they will!)
03500	you simply go back to your edit file to make the corrections and then resubmit
03600	the file to MS. With "IN" you will find that errors often require that all the
03700	data be retyped.
03800		To utilize score input from an edit file type READ NAME <CR> where NAME
03900	is any upper case file name of no more than 5 letters. Used in its most usual
04000	way READ will be completely automatic. There will be no prompts unless errors are 
04100	detected. The first line of the edit file will contain some of the information
04200	gained from the prompts when using "IN". This first line should be or the form:
04300	 
04400		*n1 n2 n3 n4 n5
04500	 
04600	n1 will be the number of the spacing staff. This can be the number of any staff
04700	   where there is as yet no input if it is to be ignored.
04800	 
04900	n2 is the number of the staff where this section of input is to go.
05000	 
05100	n3 and n4 are the left and right position limits (POS1 and POS2). In n4=0 it
05200	   becomes the default value of 2OO.
05300	 
05400	n5 will invoke the pseudo-Fibonacci spacing system if it is set to 1.
05500	 
05600		Note that if there are notes on the designated spacing staff (n1) then
05700	n3, n4, and n5 will be ignored. When "*" is used n1 and n2 must always appear.
05800	All further lines entered with "IN" or "READ" will conform to the spacing on 
05900	staff n1 unless staff n1 is deleted or some new n1 is given or "SP" is typed,
06000	followed by some new number.
06100		After this first line the data in a file will be in the same form as
06200	if it were typed directly to MS.

06400		(NOTES)......;
06500		(RHYTHMS)....;
06600		(MARKS)......;
06700		(BEAMS)......;
06800		(SLURS)......;
06900	 
07000		Several lines may be used for each of the catagories of input. As usual,
07100	the last line must end with a semicolon and the earlier lines with slashes.
07200	Anything appearing after a semicolon or after the last slash on a line will be
07300	ignored by MS. Comments are to be no entries for MARKS (or BEAMS, or SLURS) a
07400	semicolon alone should appear.
07500		If the above mentioned first line, beginning with a "*" is not
07600	used, the program will ask you for the neccessary information.  Several
