and my Scot problems are solved.

Truly, many hearty thanks.

******I've tried to post this to the mailing list one time already, but 
it didn't seem to work (not in the recent archive);  this is the first 
post i've ever made, so I'm not at all sure that i'm doing it correctly.  
Could someone *please* respond to this for me on May 19, just as a test, 
even if you can't answer my question? 

thankyou, thankyou, thankyou**********
   

Hello good csound people:

I'm obviously very newbie and missing some obvious point.  The csound 
manual describes "Scot" as:

...a language for describing scores in a fashion that parallels 
traditional music notation. Scot is
also the name of a program which translates scores written in this 
language into standard numeric
score format so that the score can be performed by Csound. The result of 
this translation is placed
in a file called score. A score file written in Scot (named file.sc, 
say) can be sent through the
translator by the command

     scot  file.sc 

I thought I downloaded all the necessaries, but don't find any 
'scot.exe' anywhere.  I've been back and forth to various ftp sites, but 
can't find it there.  What I really want is anyway to make the writing 
of a score file more like writing in 'traditional music notation.'  

Thanks so much in advance.  Csound is amazing!
