Re: X16 Midi Player
The programming language is one that I created myself. It's similar to 6502 assembly language, but it uses XML documents.
You can see the code for the midi player here: https://github.com/SpyderTL/OZone/blob/ ... Player.xml
It's fairly easy to read, and to convert to actual ASM if you wanted to. However, I find the XML to be more explicit, and easier to use when working on multiple projects for different platforms. That repository has similar projects for other platforms, like the NES, SNES, N64, Game Boy, MS-DOS, Windows, Linux, ARM, RISC-V, etc.
The XML documents allow me to add tooltips with documentation, create transform XSLT documents to insert inline functions, and I get autocomplete and intellisense for free.
