===

A Ruby script to ease the creation of bytebeat music, through special .music files.

Requirements

---

* Ruby

* A `gcc` compatible C compiler.

* `aplay` to use the `-r` command line switch.

Usage

---

With `bytebeat.rb` in the same folder as the `c` folder, simply run

    bytebeat.rb 

and a `music.out` file will appear in your current directory ready to run. Leaving out the music file will pipe input from standard input. Check out some example `.music` files in the `examples/` folder to see how to create one for yourself.

Who's idea was this?

Usage: bytebeat.rb [options] [input file]

Note: You must have gcc (or a compatible compiler) installed.

      You must have aplay installed to use `-r`.

    -o, --output OUTPUTFILE          Specify the file to output the compiled binary to (default music.out).

    -r, --run-aplay                  Run the music file after compilation, using `aplay`.

    -c, --compiler COMPILER          Specify another compiler to use over `gcc`.

    -k, --keep-temp                  Keep the processed files produced before compilation.

        --no-instrument              Don't compile in the `instrument.c` file.

    -h, --help                       Print this message.
