#### Integrated ABC music notation environment

Redrose lets you write ABC musical scores in ABC notation and, with
the help of `abcm2ps`, can display your score. It can also play the score,
generate MIDI with or without `abc2midi`, and print the score.
To enable printing support after installation, open a terminal and type:
`snap connect redrose:cups-control`
