1. The extension of textfile is "sal".
2. Text file's character code page is recognized as Windows control panel's character code page (Windows ANSI Code Page). For example, if you are using English Windows, it is 1252-Latin1, or you are using Japanese Windows, it is 932-Shift-JIS. For this, a sal file made in foreign Windows will not be able to recognized in your Windows. If you want to release sal file around the world, you can only use ASCII character such as alphabet and number. But if text file has BOM, UTF-8 and UTF-16LE's text file also get readable.
3. Text file's line feed code must be CR-LF.
4. Text file's max size is 65535 characters.
5. Text line's max size is 65535 characters.
6. After ;(semi coron) mark, the line is recognized as comment.
7. Each word must be separated by halfsize space, tab, or line feed code.
8. Each word's max size is 1023 characters.
9. Each word is case sensitive.
10. Integer is all treated as 32bit signed integer internally.
11. Available integer's type is only int (32bit signed).
12. Strings is all treated as UTF-16LE internally so you can use any character.
13. Strings's max size is 1023 characters. Even if you cat longer than 1023 bytes, it is ignored.
14. Defining function is not supported.
15. An include command is not supported.

If you insert an event to illegal track, for example, if you insert a note event to the first track (conductor track), this command does nothing. |
| (delete) | Delete existing event. This command can be used only within forEachEvent. Note that end of track event can't be deleted. Once deleted, the event can't be refered again. So this command should be used at the last line in forEachEvent. |

| KeySig.Sf | R/W | Get / Set key signature's amount of sharp or flat. If the value is positive, it means amount of sharp, or negative, it means amount of flat. For example, Emajor has four sharps, so the value is 4. This affects only to the view, and doesn't affect to playing. |
| KeySig.Mi | R/W | Get / Set Key signature is major (0) or minor (1). For example Cminor is minor, so the value is 1. This affects only to the view, and doesn't affect to playing. |
