!ultrachord filename scheme #29

Open langel opened 8 years ago

langel commented 8 years ago

I played around with making ultrachord filenames resemble the parameters.

Currently using 'S' for sharps and '_' for spaces. Both '#' and ' ' are legal filename characters but they jack the url with escaped hex characters. Not sure which is the better aesthetic.

Currently uguu.se is adding it's own random string. We'll probably move to local hosting at some point which would kill the necessity for such a thing.

Could use ♯ and ♭, but maybe it'd be better to stick with ASCII?

langel commented 7 years ago

my only argument against the unicode characters is that some IRC clients seem stuck in the ASCII realm and I don't know if that breaks the URL when transferred to a browser
