NAME

       muse-song-convert - convert between MusE songfile formats

SYNOPSIS

       muse-song-convert songfile

DESCRIPTION

       The  MIDI  Music  Editor MusE uses a custom file format to store its song files.  This format has changed
       between MusE versions 0.6 and 0.7 in incompatible ways.  The utility muse-song-convert is able to convert
       songfiles from 0.6 to the new 0.7 format, so old songs can be loaded into new versions of MusE. It is not
       possible to convert a new song back to the old format. To prevent data loss, muse-song-convert  does  not
       modify   the   original   songfile.    Instead,   it   copies  and  converts  the  original  songfile  as
       songfile.converted.  The process is meant to retain all information in the converted  songfile,  but  may
       not be perfect in all cases.
