%% *) The book has an up-stem and dot added to this note, indicating g3 rather than gdc,
%% and the word "or" above and below the d note. This seems to indicate that the final
%% dc notes may be used instead of the initial g pickup note when repeating the tune.
%% I tested several abc notations for this, with several formatters,
%% and none of them gave Christie's notation.
