[JW Lua] Sample script

[Charles O. Lawrence]

Fellow scripters,

 

I have revised and enhanced my script to delete notes from a chord.  In fact
you can set it to delete notes even if they are not in a chord, and/or in
voice2, and/or hidden.  You can also choose which layers to delete from and
what MIDI octave (0-8) or any MIDI octave, the note, and the accidental.
Enharmonic spellings are not considered equivalent for the purpose of this
script.

 

I do not profess to be an efficient Lua programmer, so the algorithm may be
able to be improved.  Please advise if you think so.  Since at present,
there is not a step-wise debugger that I know of, it was very difficult and
frustrating to debug the code.  It took a long time, but I believe it to
accurate in performing its deletion tasks.

 

I found the following issues when developing this script.

*  Printing a "\n" in the Execution Output area does not work.

*  There is no horizontal scroll capability in the Execution Output area.

*  The UI does not display the proper headings for anything but Booleans.
See the attached image.

 

And where is Jari?!?!  Does anybody know?  He has not responded to this list
since 5/1/2014, almost 2 months now.  Clearly something is going on, and I
trust everything is OK with him and his.

Fellow JWLua scripters,

 

There was a request on the MakeMusic Finale forum for a script that will
delete specific note(s) from a chord.  I put together the attached script
that will do the job.  What do you think?
