So, I suspect that Osuch would be wanting a human
readable diff, if I work out how to do this, myself. From the way the code
operates, I am gleaning that fractint will already store and interpret zero in a
scalemap (as the reference frequency; Another Ay). It will even save zero to
parameter files. It won't, however, load zeros from a parameter file. Instead,
it interprets them as 1/2/3... If I do this, then Bill Jemison also wants it to
display "off" for zero. I could probably get away with putting "Zero means
off" in the instructions on the scalemapping screen; F7, and I will see how
hard it is to print a string on a condition. In other words, I think a zero
should be in parameter files, with a meaning that it does not hav as an
exponent in equal temperament; frequency = reference / 2 ^ (1/12) ^
key.
I will be reading initiation helpmes regarding
free compilers. I think that's djgpp.
