*** SLIPPERY CHICKEN ***
************************

This is slippery chicken, the algorithmic composition package. See
doc/index.html for installation instructions and a description of what it does
and how. This documentation and other resources are also available online at
http://www.michael-edwards.org/sc

To install, you will need a Common Lisp interpreter (e.g. Steel Bank Common
Lisp, Allegro Common Lisp, CLisp etc.). If you want to take advantage of
slippery chicken's CLM and CMN interfaces, see
https://ccrma.stanford.edu/software for how to obtain and install those
packages. You may also use slippery chicken to generate LilyPond files to
produce PDFs of your scores with that programme, which can be obtained at
http://lilypond.org/

To generate MIDI files and do some other core operations you need Rick Taube's
Common Music 2.6.0.  This is now included with slippery chicken.  (Thanks
Rick!)
