! this readme contains information about the requirements, installation
! and yet undocumented features of foo.
!
!
! requirements
! ------------
!
! - libsndfile >= 1.0.10 (!)
! IMPORTANT: libsndfile prior to 1.0.10 has severe bugs in AIFF |
! FLOAT file support (which could be used for incremental mixing in
! foo) and in soundfile read/write mode, which is heavily used in foo.
! the version of libsndfile coming with your distribution might be an
! older one and therefore *TOO OLD*.
! - pkgconfig (for detection of libsndfile)
! - fooelk >= 0.0.3 or recent "ordinary" elk
! (however, toplevel.foo relies on the readline-patch in elk,
! but there is the --no-rl option now)
! - gnustep-make, gnustep-base
!
!
! installation
! ------------
!
! compiling from cvs
! ------------------
!
! if you checked out from cvs, call
!
! ./bootstrap
!
! you'll need autoconf >= 2.50 to build the configure script. after
! that, you can continue like compiling from a release tarball.
!
!
! compiling from release tarball
! ------------------------------
!
! ./configure
!
! as usual, you may set the install-prefix/paths with
!
! ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/anywhere etc.
!
! configure looks for an installation of fooelk first, after that it
! tries to find an "ordinary" elk installation. if elk is not found,
! foo refuses to build. you may specify the location of elk/fooelk with
!
! ./configure --with-elk-include=/path/to/elk/headers \
! --with-elk-library=/path/to/elk/lib
!
! make
! make install
!
! should build and install foo. depending on the target directory, you
! may have to call 'make install' as root.
!
! configure should set the install paths to toplevel.scm and to the
! binary foo, so that you should be able to run the binary 'foo' from
! everywhere. depending on your installation, you might add the path to
! libsndfile and libfooelk/libelk to LD_LIBRARY_PATH:
!
! export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/path/to/libs
! (sh-compatible shell)
!
!
! yet undocumented (new) features
! -------------------------------
!
! while porting and developing foo it's undergoing several changes,
! which can't be documented right now:
!
! scripting foo via the #! directive
! ----------------------------------
!
! *** DOCUMENT_ME ***
!
! for a simple example, see Examples/scripts/sine.foo
!
!
! user-accessible play command
! ----------------------------
!
! the variable 'foo-default-play-command' may contain the play command
! being used with (play) along with additional initial arguments:
!
! (set! foo-default-play-command "alsaplayer -q -i text")
!
!
! customization with foo files
! ----------------------------
!
! historically foo tries to evaluate the files '~/.initfoo' and
! './.initfoo' (in this order) on startup. these files may contain
! normal foo code to customize the behavior of foo.
!
! from foo-0.0.4 on, the following files are evaluated for
! customization:
!
! /etc/foo/init.foo (system wide settings)
! ~/.foo/init.foo (user's settings)
! ./.init.foo (working dir settings)
!
! backwards compatability to the behavior of foo-2.1 is still retained.
! it should not be used for new projects.
!
!
! start option to disable readline support
! ----------------------------------------
!
! if foo is started with the '--no-rl'-option, a different toplevel file
! will be used which doesn't rely on fooelk's readline extension. as a
! side effect, the symbol completer is disabled, too, which avoids
! problems which sourcecode containing tabs at stdin (script or in
! emacs' inferior mode).
!
!
! fractional tone custom reader
! -----------------------------
!
! the foo-(NeXT)-2.1-semitone reader is not longer supported. the new
! syntax for fractional tones is:
!
! #s1 ; half tone
! 1.05946309435929530984310531494
!
! #s12 ; twelve half tones = 1 octave
! 2
!
! #s1/2 ; half half tone = 1 quarter tone
! 1.029302236643492074463779317739
!
! #q1 ; quarter tone
! 1.029302236643492074463779317739
!
!
! libsndfile support (since foo-0.0.2)
! ------------------------------------
!
! foo can read and write every sound format supported by libsndfile. in
! constrast to the foo-2.1-(NeXT)-documentation, the following
! functions/macros where adopted to reflect this feature:
!
! (make-soundfile "name" fileformat channels samplingrate . filetype)
! (create-soundfile "name" fileformat channels samplingrate . filetype)
!
! (synt channels duration samplingrate "name" fileformat filetype)
!
! where filetype is one of:
!
! 'wav 'aiff 'snd 'paf 'svx 'nist 'voc 'ircam 'wav64 'mat4 'mat5 'pvf 'xi
! note: there is no special 'au type, but 'snd is the same format (Sun/NeXT).
! the default filetype is 'aiff.

! this is libfoo, part of the foo sound synthesis system.
! for further informations, please refer to the toplevel README file.
