There was some talk about revisiting the choice of sorting algorithm
used by csound to create the score.srt.  This is of some import to me.
I just wondered whether the idea was still alive.

I thought of using the --keep-sorted-score flag so that I could sort
the score myself using an external program, but it turns out that
the flag does what it says, but puffs the score.srt the next time
csound is run.  What then, is this flag for?

As an aside I noticed that there is a 'w' statement at the start
of the score.srt, but that type of statement doesn't seem to
be documented in the manual.  'warp' maybe?

Thanks,

Tobiah

Not come across that flag.  I assume some copying of files between runs?

w is an internal opcode used as part of the warping.  Just do not use

Hi,

Maybe something related to this can be another idea for the google
summer of code?

Cheers,
Andrés

Very nice to hear, thanks.

That's what I was thinking, but it does not seem possible.  I had hoped
so save a copy of each sorted score, and to have my Makefile copy
them over to score.srt for each orchestra just before rendering.
The problem is that csound does not take the presence of a score.srt
as a sign to skip sorting.  It sorts the regular score into score.srt every
time.

I guess a flag like --skip-score-sorting would help.  At least that
way, I could avoid many of the painful sort times when all I need
to change is my orchestra.

Thanks,

Tobiah

There is code so if the scor file is a srt or xtr file then it is used
without sorting.  This does not fit with teh csd style, but I tghink it
works.

    if ((n = strlen(csound->scorename)) > 4 &&  /* if score ?.srt or ?.xtr */
        (!strcmp(csound->scorename + (n - 4), ".srt") ||
         !strcmp(csound->scorename + (n - 4), ".xtr"))) {
      csound->Message(csound, Str("using previous %s\n"), csound->scorename);
      playscore = sortedscore = csound->scorename;  /*   use that one */
    }
