Converted into digital "visually mneumonic" shorthand -- only 4 numbers used - 6 - lower hole closed, 9 - upper hole closed, 8 - both holes closed, 0 - neither upper or lower closed - basically, this is exactly like the nifty blue squares with the four circles generated by the Score Generator on his web site - only the numbers can be printed by computer or written by hand... so "88" is all the holes closed.. 99, both upper closed, 66 both lower closed, 00 none closed, and 86, 68, 89, and 98 follow suit... (the "6890" or Pundiak system)

For almost all of the Christmast Carols in one collection - one entry - easy to copy and paste into a word processor and make a large nearly comprehensive collection of carols ...

Over 75 Christmas Carols in shorthand, alphabetized, updated

The above looks like generator music and not shorthand, so here's the link for it. BTW, there is another version of this song already posted on the forum before this thread was ever started.
