* at Donald Arseneau's request, added language to state that
conditionals.sty is public domain

added in Release 4.2; that optional parameter has been removed
* a new songTranslation environment added to provide the required
capability for the Artist index option
* added a new song to the sample songbook to act as a test case
for translation
Changes in Release 4.2:
* added a new Artist index option
* added a new optional parameter to the xlatn environment; in support of
the new Artist index option
chordbk, wordbk, overhead:
These styles have been used to produce the songbooks for our church. We
needed to produce books that our song-leaders could use, as well as books
for use in the congregation; so, these styles were written.
The `chordbk' option is used to print a songbook with words and chords, and
it also supports a `compactsong' option which lays out the song in two
columns per page instead of one (the `wordbk' and `overhead' options do not
support compactsong mode at present). The `wordbk' option is used to print
a words-only songbook. The `overhead' option is used to print overhead
transparencies. They all use the same LaTeX input file. `Wordbk' and
`overhead' modes simply ignore all of the chord information.
songbook.dtx:
This is both the formal documentation for the Songbook style as well as
its source code. A .pdf file is provided, as well as the .tex file.
sample-sb.tex:
This is a sample songbook. This file is used to produce the sample???.dvi
files included with this package. To regenerate the .dvi files, simply
uncomment the appropriate \document line and re-LaTeX the file.
