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.
