More neat score file format using MusicXML or something #3

Closed hakatashi closed 10 years ago

Currently score data is filed in the original XML file format 'UTFX', extending once used UTyping Fumen File Format. For compatibility and convenience, it would be nice to use existing music file format like MusicXML or MIDI, I think MusicXML(.mxl) the most, but not enough examination.

fmmm... After some days of studying, I found MusicXML and MIDI is not a neat solution. Its writing is beat-based (ofcourse) and inflexible in timing adjustment, and also insufficient note types (for YouTyping specific note types e.g. '*'(lyric) or '/'(stop)) and too complicated notation of score is remarked. So I discarded the idea to use compatible file format. I'm recently upgrading UTFX file format version to 0.1, on branch UTFX-0.1, with reviews for sustainable operation. I'll close this issue if that matures.

I concluded this is just a stupid idea.
