  168.               Creating .CM1 Files
  169.         
  170.             To play music, you must enter a series of notes into a 
  171.         command music file (CM1).  Using your favorite text editor or 
  172.         word processor in ASCII mode, create a file with any legal 
  173.         DOS name and the extension .CM1.  Enter notes one per line, 
  174.         in accordance with the diagram below:
  175.         
  176.         
  177.             ────── F  
  178.             ────── D
  179.             ────── b
  180.             ────── g
  181.             ────── e
  182.                    c
  183.         
  184.             ______ A
  185.             ______ E
  186.             ______ C
  187.             ______ a
  188.             ______ f
  189.                    d
  190.                  
  191.             Just remember the old sayings from elementary school days:
  192.         Every Good Boy Does Fine (EGBDF) and FACE.  Note upper and lower 
  193.         case letters also; the upper case letters denote a higher octave.
  194.         
  195.             In version 1.1 and later, you may also include rests, which 
  196.         are denoted by the letter "r" (upper case also acceptable). 
  197.         
  198.             Once you have the tone down, represent the type of note by 
  199.         the following scale:
  200.         
  201.             whole note = 1
  202.             half note = 2
  203.             quarter note = 4
  204.             eigth note = 8
  205.             sixteenth note = @
  206.         
  207.             You may indicate sharps and flats by including a "#" or "b" 
  208.         character in the third column, respectively.  You may also in-
  209.         dicate that the note should be held half again as long by putting
  210.         a "." in the third column.  (I have no idea what the technical
  211.         term for this is, but in sheet music this is denoted by a "."
  212.         immediately following the note symbol.)
  213.         
  214.             For MUSIC v2.0 and later, the lyrics for the song can be
  215.         included beginning in column 4 (i.e., skip column three if there
  216.         are no sharps, flats, or "."s).
  217.         
  218.             Thus, a whole 'c' would be represented as 'c1' while a high 
  219.         'd' sixteenth would be 'D@'; a quarter c sharp would be represen-
  220.         ted as 'c4#'.  Each note must be placed on its own line, begin-
  221.         ning in column 1.  See the enclosed sample .CM1 files for more 
  222.         help.
  223.         
  224.             If you have problems in some of your songs, try changing 
  225.         the notes from upper to lower case, and vice-versa.
