atom-xi

An Atom plugin for Xi, a musical pattern language written in Ruby.

Installation

Linux, OSX

Just install Xi as instructed and install this package. No further configuration is needed.

In case you need to specify a different path for the Xi executable, set Xi Path in configuration page.

Windows

If you installed Ruby using RubyInstaller, you will need to set the Xi Path configuration setting to the absolute path of the xi.bat executable. You will find this in the bin directory inside your Ruby installation directory. This is usually at C:\Ruby[version]-[arch]\bin\xi.bat. You will also need to specify the command line option --irb because of a current bug related to Pry and Windows.

For example, if you installed Ruby 2.6 x64 (Windows 64-bit), and it is installed at C:\, you should set: C:\Ruby26-x64\bin\xi.bat --irb

Usage

• Open a new file ending with the .xi extension, or set file type to Xi.
• Evaluate a paragraph with Ctrl+Enter (or Command+Enter). If this is the first time, Xi will be started.
