In previous versions of MinimServer, this incorrect setting was ignored. MinimServer update 241 has additional checking for incorrect settings such as this.

Thanks for the prompt responses and this explanation. If I understand this correctly, it means that the setting never had any effect in any case.

It was so long ago that I don't really remember . But the general intention was to display composer names naturally (Ludwig van Beethoven) while sorting them by surname (Beethoven, Ludwig van). I used a separate ComposerSort tag because this was before the reverseName function was added to MinimServer. I have stuck with this arrangement partly because it is what I became used to, but also because some composer names (Josquin, Ludwig van Beethoven) don't fit the standard reverseName paradigm.

From what you say, my instinct is to continue with the removal of ComposerSort from tagFormat, but to reverse the change to tagOptions. I think that will leave me as, in effect, I already was. Does this make sense to you?
