[goodfeel] Re: Lime and XML-import limits

I am certainly using the one bundled with GoodFeel since I downloaded it from 
the link you provided in an earlier post. I only wanted to know if there were 
any changes incorporated in this version to make it more suitable for braille 
requirements, is there?

  Hi, Douk,

  It's always best to use the version of Lime we bundle with our GOODFEEL 
release.  Currently, it's 9.02 and the version of Lime released from Dr. 
Haken's site is 9.00.  However, in the past, we were shipping 8.50 while he had 
already released 9.00.  So 9.02 is definitely your best bet.

  The access piece is mainly provided by the JAWS-based Lime Aloud scripts.  
Lime itself is smart enough to know when GOODFEEL is around and to act 
accordingly.

  Regards,
  Bill

  Hi Bill:
  I have a question here. Is the Lime version shipped with GoodFeel modified in 
a way to facilitate working with braille and speech acccess?

    Hi, Claudio,

    The MusicXML import feature of Lime is good and quite useful but it is not 
yet close to being perfect.  In fact,although the developer of Lime continues 
to make improvements in Lime's MusicXML import facility, it will almost 
certainly never be completely comprehensive.  That is because of the nature of 
MusicXML itself.  Any program can create a MusicXML file containing almost an 
infinite variety of information.  Programs that read such files are free to 
ignore bits of information that they do not recognize.

    To put it more simply, there are many "flavors" of MusicXML and nobody's 
software will ever recognize all of them.  That being said, Lime will generally 
give you at least all the correct notes and rhythms from any MusicXML files 
that does not crash it!  Crashes are fairly rare but still too common.  
Improving Lime's MusicXML import function is a high priority for Dr. Haken, 
Lime's developer.  As he makes improvements, we will incorporate them into the 
version of Lime we ship with GOODFEEL.

    Regards,
    Bill

    Hi,
    I wanted to import an XML-file in Lime, which has been created with Dolet4 
of Sibelius and it seems, that it doesn't work for some reasons. The Dolet4 of 
Sibelius creates a XML-file version2. What are the XML import limits of Lime? 
Importing makes Lime crash with message: "lime.exe has produced an error" or 
something like that.
    Thanks for help.
    Claudio
