[Nyquist-users] Nyquist 3.0 Mac and Win32 versions online

[Roger D. <rb...@cs...>]

I started using the SAL language in Nyquist for "real work" and my 
"weekend project" to compile and install a Windows version turned into a 
lot of debugging. But finally, things appear to be in reasonable shape, 
so I've put the official Version 3.00 on the web at the usual place:

http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~music/music.software.html

There's a Mac Universal binary app and a Windows installer.
There's also a zipped Linux source, but I realize as I type this that 
the Makefile is wrong so it won't compile without a fair number of fixes 
(ok, so not all in reasonable shape).

Based on recent experience, I expect the SAL stuff is going to have some 
rough edges, although it's coming along, and I'd certainly like to get 
some feedback from other users.

The Lisp side hasn't changed much and assuming I didn't screw up the 
release procedure, I don't expect any big problems.

Included in 3.0, in addition to SAL, are a number of ports of STK 
instruments by Pedro Morales as well as a little language he wrote for 
transcribing mostly common practice music notation into Nyquist. See 
demos/stktest.lsp and demos/doc/sdl-man.pdf.
