I was wondering about the CLI thing (whether it was functioning on Windows)... CLI as you described it, is a really, really neat/handy device for script writing flow.
Attached a pdf showing a simple idea (Not necessarily in writing mode, there is a bit to think about and a number of things I still have to figure out). Notice the first three notes have a labeled interval distance, which would be a great functionality for people wanting to learn and have that visual aid of interval distance to get worked into memory, since the counterpoint formulas become simpler with repetition. Numbering does not appear to be a requirement for the first iteration, since it may be cumbersome to add and get working right. Your advice has been helpful! :) R Wilber ---- On Thu, 31 Jan 2019 07:14:33 -0800 Richard Shann <rich...@rshann.plus.com> wrote ---- On Wed, 2019-01-30 at 19:31 +0000, Richard Shann wrote: > > with menu directory structure: -rpoint. > > This is-just for if user is writing Cantus on bottom. > with menu directory structure: > .denemo- > 2.2.11\actions\menus\ObjectMenu\NotesRests\InsertNote\Counterpoint. > If you want to use two possible places as the location for the > inserted > notes there are commands to push the current position and pop it > again > later (or to store the initial position in a variable and the go to > it > later).

Thinking a bit more about this, probably you should just write your input method to have Cantus at the bottom. When you want to typeset the score you can either use Staffs/Voices->Swap Staffs or (if you want to be able to typeset both quickly) create a Score Layout to typeset the staffs in the alternate order. On another topic you mention denemo-2.2.11\actions\menus\ObjectMenu\NotesRests\InsertNote\Counterpoint from which I guess you are working with a Microsoft O/S. The binaries being created for Windows overnight do not include a console to see any diagnostic messages. It occurs to me that this would mean that the Scheme command line (labelled CLI in the Scheme window) is useless on those Windows binaries. With the CLI you can test if something like d-AddHighestDownAugmented5 exists by typing it into CLI and hitting Return - the console output will then tell you what it evaluates to or throw an error. There is a help text stored in a Scheme variable named by prefixing "Help-" to the command name e.g Help-d-New is the Help text for the command d-New. Since this is useless on Windows without a specially created executable, I've changed the behavior of the CLI tool to pop-up a dialog when used on Windows - this will be available in tomorrow's executable at the usual place: http://www.denemo.org/~jjbenham/mxe/denemo.zip which means you can use it to test the values of Scheme variables and the signatures of Scheme procedures that Denemo creates.
