Loading a text file with the same name of the Song
Lyrics and chords may be contained in a TXT file having the same name of a
MIDI Song or an MP3 Song. For example, if a “MySong.txt” file exists in the
same folder as the “MySong.mid” file or “MySong.mp3” file, loading this lat-
ter will load the TXT Lyrics file as well.
