Those ancient musicians would no doubt think it miraculous (or perhaps the work of a post-Paganini devil) to be able to input a full score of musical notes - even with extensive notation - in a matter of minutes, and then generate one pristine copy after another, as fast as one's laser printer could crank them out. One can only imagine what they would now think of professional and amateur musicians tapping out notes on a computer keyboard, or using a mouse, and then printing letter-perfect sheet music at the touch of a button (or, more accurately, the Print menu item on the File menu).
