## What's this?

It's a command line interface that you can use for music live coding with [Glicol](https://glicol.org).

It watches a file changes and then update the music in real-time.

## How to use it?

### Step 1

You need to have `cargo` installed (see [here](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/getting-started/installation.html)).

### Step 2

In your Terminal:

```sh

cargo install --git https://github.com/glicol/glicol-cli.git

```

### Step 3

Create a new file called `test.glicol`, then run this command in your Terminal:

```sh

glicol-cli test.glicol

```

For more `OPTIONS`, call `--help` in your terminal:

```

~ glicol-cli --help                                    

Glicol cli tool. This tool will watch the changes in a .glicol file

Usage: glicol-cli [OPTIONS]

    path to the .glicol file

  -h, --help             Print help

  -V, --version          Print version

```

### Step 4

Start live coding. Edit `test.glicol` with your favourite editor:

```

// test.glicol

~t1: speed 4.0 >> seq 60 >> bd 0.2 >> mul 0.6

    

~t2: seq 33_33_ _33 33__33 _33
