                   ************************

This is slippery-chicken, a Common Lisp and CLOS package for algorithmic composition.

I use two main branches: 'master' is used only for releases; 'michael' is used all the time whilst developing so can be seen as the 'bleeding edge'. If I've updated something for you, you'll find them in 'michael'.

slippery chicken outputs sound files, MIDI files, and score files in PDF, Lilypond, and MusicXML formats. It also outputs scores in antescofo~ format for use with Arshia Cont's score following external for Max/MSP.

The source code is available here in github. For more details about installation, including pre-compiled binaries and an OSX app, as well as extensive documentation see http://www.michael-edwards.org/sc

NB If you're installing this 'by hand' by cloning/downloading directly from github, be sure to create a directory called 'bin' in the parent of the directory holding these source files. See the wiki page
