What are advantages of this scheme? I am not familiar with it and it's not exactly human readable.
I agree with you that the notation is unreadable.I was writing a parser for the d-diagram already and I was wondering if it would be useful to contribute back to the Spherogram project. If it is undesirable I will just create my own project for it instead.
From what is in the paper you could
Very sorry for the slow response, initially I suggest you do this as a separate project.
Yea I understood that thanks Z

A suggestion: a function which accepts a d-diagram as input and outputs a PD code for a link projection would be something that anyone who wants to work with d-diagrams could use, in many contexts.

Would it be useful / desirable for snappy to allow for an input of a d-diagram as a text input and then constructing the knot that would represent it? For example
(([[))]] -> Would correspond to a Manifold object of the Trefoil.
More details below.
