Hi,

Using abcm2ps version 8.14.14 with the following input file (test.abc):

X: 1
M: 3/4
K: C
[|:c2 B3 A|A2 G3 F|F2 E2 F2[G6|G2 F2 E2|1,3,5 E4 D2|C6|(G2 A2 B2):|]

which is a line extracted from a long score file.

I am getting this:

# abcm2ps test.abc
abcm2ps-8.14.14 (2022-12-19)
File test.abc

Output written on Out.ps (1 page, 1 title, 20195 bytes)

Am I doing it wrong? a bug?

Thanks,
Patrice

With [G6 you start a chord. If you want the bracket to be a thick bar then you should type [|G6.

Sure my eyes was probably tired and the typo is exactly there: it should have been |G6 and not [G6, many thanks!
I was so surprised by the abcm2ps cascade output that I missed that point. :-/
I close this then. Thanks again.
