[MEI-L] page sizes; books on music notation/engraving

[Byrd, Donald A.]

I've finally finished documenting how units and coordinate systems work 
in Nightingale. It's far less detailed than Craig's opus on SCORE, and 
it's not at all clear to me it'll be helpful to this discussion!; but 
anyway here it is (attached).

Also, if anyone is interested in books on conventional Western music 
notation (CWMN), the latest and quite possibly greatest I know of is 
Behind Bars, by Elaine Gould, published by Faber Music. It's certainly 
the most detailed book on CWMN I've ever seen; it even includes 
specific rules about exactly how much space to allow for lots of 
things, something I've seen in only one book before (Ted Ross' old The 
Art of Music Engraving and Processing).
