Back in '98 there was a small thread about converting ABC >NWC and NWC >ABC. Anyone have anything new on this (other than the standard 'convert to MID and then to NWC' method)yet?
I host some O'Neill's Music Of Ireland and Allan's Irish Fiddler pages on my website (http://www.sosyourmom.com) and the task of transcribing several thousand pieces of music into NWC by hand is... well, a bit daunting is an adequate description.
Any info or assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Sigh. The problem with having duplicate thread on a topic is that it calls for duplicate responses.
About 6 months ago, as I recall, someone did post a forum message about having an ABC-NWC conversion program. Use the forum "search".
I'm sort of interested, too, so I've already done the search
(had to search "abc" in "message text").
This looks good:

ABC2NWC is the best solution today. It is a shareware and you can download on http://members.aol.com/abacusmusic/.
I have used for many score written for bagapipe. Some correction must be done manually after conversion.
