I agree completely. Entering a score is essentially a matter of symbol
manipulation, and I feel that text editors are usually the right tool
for this sort of job.

I can't believe I missed this --- I actually visited your website before
I started on Mondrian because I remembered your performance at LAC2005,
but I only saw your sound generators in Lisp at the time. It sure looks
like we've been thinking along the same lines, albeit with a different
focus.

Ah, hours of fun!
