Hi!
I like Alex's suggested programme.

That sounds very good.
For what it's worth, my system is currently called "musique littéral"
("literal music"). The name is meant as a companion to the venerable
term "musique concrete", and refers to the fact that I'm making music
"word for word", using natural language with an interactive-fiction
interface. It's also a pun on "literal value" in the computer-science
sense. I also considered "musique littéraire" ("literary music"); I'd
appreciate any feedback people have about it. :)
The system is also cross-platform, and installs by copying a file. (I'm
writing an explanatory website for it now, I expect to turn it on around
1 January).
thanks again,
-C
