That's very clever, and by the same token, there is the function of 2 variables:
Joke(X0,X1), What's the difference between X0 and X1, X0 burns longer.

Actually the "perfect pitch" joke (here in a simpler version) is
actually a joke function:

I was always a geek. I was in Spelling Bees, read alot, sucked at
sports, got picked on a lot (sound familiar?). In the 5th grade, they

So if I understand what you're saying about option 1: I display the abc
code (of a file called tune.abc) as text but if the user clicks on it,
instead of hearing proper abc, what they actually hear is tune.mid.
