Hello all,
using -L for reading stdin in terminal (on linux).
I am experimenting, and i have try to use a macro definition in score for
semplifying typing,
i.e. something like this: #define I #i 1 0 10 0.3 6.00#, and instead of type
all the line i 1 0 ecc.
i could only type I (or $I). But this is not working
  unknown opcode $
  illegal RT scoreline:

Is there a way to make this? (i'm really not an expert on linux ...).

thanks,
ciao,
francesco.

I don't think this will work because macros are only evaluated by the  
score preprocessor.

You need to pipe your score statement sthrough a macro expander.  Would be
"easy" to create one but afaik there is not one extant at present.

thanks,

if i have understand when Csound is running with -L is only possible to send
a complete score statement, and no (csound) macro is possible (because macro
expansion happen at compile time);
no other possibilitie to use some macro definite, for example, in bash or
other language?
What do You mean with macro expander? I have try to define a string variable
in bash, but don't work because is like if i try to use bash in a csound
environment, i.e. csound don't know about bash.
Can i use pipe (and how)?

Apologies for trivial question,
Thanks,
ciao,
francesco.

Untested, but maybe you can use M4:

  $ m4 | csound -L
  changequote([, ])
  define(_I, [i 1 0 10 0.3 6.00])

Now if you just enter "_I", you should get the score event.
M4 can do a lot more than this but it's pretty arcane.
[You might need 'dnl' after each line if csound doesn't ignore blank lines]

Cheers,
David

Thank Mr David,
a first attempt seem not working, but i will try to understand m4 (that i
did not know).
I will then try again.

ciao,
francesco.

You will really want to write a simple script in bash or python
or perl that takes the input that you do wish to type, and formats
it into a valid score line and prints it out.

Here is one in bash:

desktops:toby:custom(1)> cat foo
while echo -n "Enter p5: " ; read foo; do
         echo "i1 0 2 10000 $foo"
done
desktops:toby:custom(1)> . foo
Enter p5: 344
i1 0 2 10000 344
Enter p5: 400
i1 0 2 10000 400
Enter p5: 410
i1 0 2 10000 410
Enter p5: 500
i1 0 2 10000 500
