A stable release, version 25.05, of MMA--Musical MIDI Accompaniment is available for downloading. In addition to a number of bug fixes, documentation reviews and optimizations, MMA now features: Fixed the docs for the COPY and COPYTO commands. There never was a COPYTO command! TO and FROM are extensions to the COPY command. Opps. Added system variable $_PWD. This returns the current working directory just like the unix pwd command. An empty argument for DRUM TONE resulted in a infinite loop. Fixed. Added a bit of verbosity to the error message generated when defining a TONE or VOICE by a message if you have confused constants for the two. Added a ERROR command. Text after the error is displayed and compilation stops. Changed the parser so that when setting the scale offset to use with bass patterns - and/or + can be placed before the digit(s) as well as after. Fixed errors in the documentation build. RPITCH: Fixed some minor coding errors; added the BEATS option (very useful!). An error in common.py caused random crashes due to an undefined escape sequence. Several minor documentation tweaks and fixes. Please read the file text/CHANGES-25 for a complete list of changes. MMA is a accompaniment generator -- it creates midi tracks for a soloist to perform with. User supplied files contain pattern selections, chords, and MMA directives.
