abc2ly and beams

[Guy Gascoigne-Piggford]

I'm pretty new to Lilypond but have been toying with ABC for a while now 
and was very interested to see lilypond's ability to generate very nice 
pdf files from my abc stuff.

Anyway to cut a long ramble short, I noticed that ABC's idea of beaming 
wasn't preserved in Lilypond so I've modifed the abc2ly python script 
from 2.0.1 (the version that I'm running on XP) so that it now supports 
beams.

I've tested this against my admittedly small abc collection and I was 
wondering if there is anyone else out there who'd be interested in 
looking at or otherwise testing this fix.  If it ends out looking good 
then I'll see about submitting it as a bug fix/enhancement.

Since I expect that I can't send a zip file to this list, there is a 
copy of the script at
