This is neat. It’s basically a REPL for 80s BASIC-style Music Markup Language (MML), almost identical syntactically.

- montag 5y agoIndeed, MML is mentioned here: https://blog.djy.io/alda-a-manifesto-and-gentle-introduction/ https://blog.djy.io/alda-a-manifesto-and-gentle-introduction... This is another interactive MML project worth checking out: https://github.com/superctr/mmlgui https://github.com/superctr/mmlgui edit: unfortunately, we need to clarify...we're talking about Music Macro Language
- lioeters 5y agoThanks for this reference, it led me down a curious tangent. It might not be the same thing - this one is XML-based, rather than "BASIC-style" - but I found an example of what Music Markup Language looks like, with Chopin's Trois Nocturne: https://steyn.pro/mml/examples/chopin.html https://steyn.pro/mml/examples/chopin.html For more links: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_Markup_Language https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_Markup_Language
- montag 5y agoOh...no...this MML is XML-based markup (read: not practical for use by humans), not the same as Music Macro Language.
- lioeters 5y agoHahah, I see, thank you for the correction. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_Macro_Language#Modern_MML https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_Macro_Language#Modern_MM...
