+
+This program re-factors (sequences of) conventional 
+note-spacing commands (\\notes \\Notes \\NOtes ...)
+in a measure 
+into
+a single \\anotes command.
+This is intended for "legacy" scores in order to take advantage of
+features 
+only provided by 
+.BR autosp (1),
+such as "global" skips and processing of \TransformNotes commands.
+
+.SH LIMITATIONS
+
+
+.B tex2aspc
+assumes that & and | (rather than \\nextinstrument and \\nextstaff) are used to separate instruments and staffs.
+
+User-defined macros are not processed or expanded.
