Thanks for the feedback!

Microsoft is also working on a version of JavaScript called TypeScript, which has type inference based on assignment, as well as type declarations. It makes using an IDE much more pleasant when it can "intellisense" the class and show you a list of methods.

I found a JavaScript library called cufon which can convert TrueType fonts into data structures and render them, which means I should be able to replace the static bitmaps I'm using to render notational graphics with vector graphics. It means a rewrite of that portion of the code, but I'll end up with something a lot more flexible. For example, I'll be able to dynamically set the color of items, or change the scaling on the fly. I'll probably use the Gonville font from LilyPond, since it's licensed for that. I've started

It probably won't change the functionality much, but it should make the coding more pleasant, since I'll be able to ask the toolkit for the metrics of glyphs, instead of doing in manually.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
