Re: [chuck-users] introduce myself

2012/5/21 henrique matias :

what this ":ab fa / :ab fa1" means? is it some stupid conversion thing, or am i really missing this "syntax trick"?

ab is a Vi command, means "abbreviation": http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Using_abbreviations What I am really missing here is how to perform live coding. I mean, is there a way to make chuck evaluate a file WHILE I am typing it in vim? Cheers,

Hello Carlo

I haven't tried myself, but I guess it is possible - at least with vim in a window and a shell in another. For something more integrated, I suggest you to read the following thread of discussion :

https://lists.cs.princeton.edu/pipermail/chuck-users/2011-November/006454.ht...

On the supercollider/chuck comparison - if you are looking at both right now I guess you are looking for informations on this subject too - I would say that supercollider is probably more powerful (more mature with a **lot** of things already existing), but chuck approach to audio programming is much easier to grasp (well, that's only my personal experience)

happy livecoding !

Hi all, I am Carlo, from Italy.

I would like to start studying a programming language for musical live coding purposes.

I am using Linux. I was looking at ChucK and Supercollider.

My question is: Is it possible to use Vim to perform live coding with Chuck ?

Cheers,
