+\begin{abstract}{\noindent
+The |recorder-fingering| package provides support for generating fingering diagrams for baroque fingering recorders. Standard fingerings are provided for recorders in both C and F, along with methods to create and display alternate fingerings for trills, etc.
+}
+\end{abstract}
+
+
+\section{Display commands}
+This package provides five commands (|\Sopranino|, |\Soprano|, |\Alto|, |\Tenor|, and |\Bass|)\footnote{Because \pkg{musixtex} defines commands \pkg{\bs alto} and \pkg{\bs bass} the fingering display commands are capitalized.} which will produce a fingering diagram for any note in the playable range of that recorder. At present, there are no differences between the three F recorders (sopranino, alto, and bass) and the two C recorders (soprano and tenor), so the different command names are simply there for convenience.
+
+
+\begin{table}[htpb]
+\centering
+\begin{tabularx}{.8\textwidth}{tX}
+\toprule
+\bs Sopranino [<parameters>]\{<note>\} & Display a fingering diagram for note in F\\
+\bs Soprano [<parameters>]\{<note>\} & Display a fingering diagram for note in C\\
+\bs Alto [<parameters>]\{<note>\} & Display a fingering diagram for note in F\\
+\bs Tenor [<parameters>]\{<note>\} & Display a fingering diagram for note in C\\
+\bs Bass [<parameters>]\{<note>\} & Display a fingering diagram for note in F\\
+\bottomrule
+\end{tabularx}
+\caption{Display commands}
+\end{table}
+\subsection{Note ranges and notation\label{Notes}}
+The notes range from C–Eb for recorders in C (|\Soprano| and |\Tenor|) or F–Ab for recorders in F (|\Sopranino| and |\Alto|).
+
+Notes are noted as C-B (first octave) c-b (second octave) and c'–eb' (third octave) with an equivalent scheme starting at F for the recorders in F.
+\subsection{Display parameters}
+Each display command allows two display parameters to be set.
+
+\begin{table}[htpb]
+\centering
+\begin{tabularx}{.9\textwidth}{tX}
+\toprule
+thumboffset = <true/false> & Display the thumb hole offset or not (default = \pkg{true})\\
+width = <length> & Width of the diagram (default = \pkg{20pt}). Height adjusts proportionally\\
+\bottomrule
+\end{tabularx}
+\caption{Display parameters}
+\end{table}
+
+The |width| parameter sets the width of the diagram; it defaults to |20pt| for the default thumb offset diagrams. If you set |thumboffset=false| you will probably want to choose a smaller value e.g. |10pt|.
+
+You can set the parameters individually for any particular display command, but most likely you'll want global settings. To set the parameters globally use the command |\fingeringSetup|
+
+e.g. |\fingeringSetup{width=12pt,thumboffset=false}| makes all diagrams use an inline thumb hole and 12pt width.
+\begin{table}[htpb]
+\centering
+\begin{tabular}{TT}
+\pkg{\bs Alto\{c\}} & \pkg{\bs Soprano[width=10pt,thumboffset=false]\{f\}}\\
+\\
+\Alto{c} & \Soprano[width=10pt,thumboffset=false]{f}
+\end{tabular}
+\caption{Example fingering commands}
+\end{table}
+\section{Producing new fingerings}
+
+There are three commands to add new fingerings to the predefined list, or in fact, to change the existing defaults.
+\subsection{Note names}
+Although the basic predefined fingerings use the note naming schema outlined in section \ref{Notes}, the note names themselves are arbitrary. This allows you to add trill fingerings or alternate fingerings with meaningful names, e.g. |ftrill| or |altF| are possible names for new fingerings.
+\subsection{Fingering vectors}
+Fingerings are specified using an 8 (and possibly 9) element comma separated list. Each position in the list denotes a hole starting from the thumb (position 0) to the bell (position 8). Each hole position is indicated by a hole state according to the following scheme:
+
+\begin{table}[htpb]
+\centering
+\begin{tabularx}{.8\textwidth}{tX}
+\toprule
+0 & open hole\\
+1 & closed hole (positions 0-5); single closed hole (positions 6,7)\\
+2 & double closed hole (positions 6,7 only)\\
+t & half hole (thumb)\\
+h & half hole (positions 1-5)\\
+\bottomrule
+\end{tabularx}
+\caption{Hole states}
+\end{table}
+\subsection{New fingering commands}
+
+Two commands |\NewFfingering| and |\NewCfingering| are designed to add a single fingering. They check whether the name for the fingering is already used and produce an error if so. To overwrite an existing fingering, use |\NewFfingering*| and |\NewCfingering*|.
+
+The third command is designed to enter a set of new fingerings at once. It will override any existing note names. It takes two arguments, a key, and a key value list consisting of note names plus fingering vectors.
+
+\begin{table}[htpb]
+\centering
+\begin{tabularx}{.8\textwidth}{X}
+\toprule
+\texttt{\bs NewFfingering\{<notename>\}\{<fingering vector>\}} \\\rule{3em}{0pt}Add a new note and fingering to the F recorder set\\
+\texttt{\bs NewCfingering\{<notename>\}\{<fingering vector>\}} \\\rule{3em}{0pt} Add a new note and fingering to the C recorder set\\
+\texttt{\bs AddFingerings\{<key>\}\{<note = \{<fingering vector>\}\}} \\\rule{3em}{0pt} Add a set of new fingerings to the F or C recorder set\\
+\bottomrule
+\end{tabularx}

+\section{Version History}
+Version 0.5 of this package (the initial version) was in response to a \href{https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/674847/2693}{TeX.se question} and used a substantially different set of user commands. The current version (1.0) is more flexible and has a more useable user interface. Bug reports and feature requests are welcome at the \href{https://github.com/amunn/recorder-fingering/issues}{GitHub bug tracker}.
+\section{Acknowledgements}
+This is my first attempt to write a package using |expl3|. Thanks to Jonathan P. Spratte for suggesting how to split fingering vectors and the various LaTeX development team members (David Carlisle, Ulrike Fischer, Phelype Olenik and Joseph Wright) who have answered random |expl3| questions in the TeX.se chat. Thanks also to all the TeX.se users who have both asked and answered questions on the site. Your questions encourage new packages like this one and your answers help make the code better.

+\section{Using in conjunction with \texttt{musixtex}}
+\fingeringSetup{thumboffset=true,width=12pt}
+It's simple to add fingerings on top of musical excerpts created with |musixtex| using the |tikzmark| library to place the fingerings. Here's a sample of what you can do, with the code below.
