contains a more detailed description of
.BR YAPS .
.SH BUGS
.PP
Overfull lines of music are not split over multiple lines.
.PP
WARNING - the \fI-s\fP option is now used for scaling.
Selecting separate printing of each voice (which previously used \fI-s\fP)
is now done with \fI-V\fP.
.PP
YAPS is still under development and missing a number of features.
However, it should produce acceptable output most of the time.
You may want to try \fBabc2ps\fP or \fBabcm2ps\fP if you find that
\fBYAPS\fP will not do what you want.
