	Thanks for the info. Like I said, I'm just starting with making music 
into song tracks; I don't care about printing out the score. So far I 
looked at MuseScore. Seems pretty easy, need to find the instruments 
sounds I like.
	RoseGarden is next on the list to try. And I'll have a look at Lilypond
