ABC notation language

Company / developer:
  Chris Walshaw

abc is a language designed to notate tunes in an ascii format.
It was designed primarily for folk and traditional tunes of Western European origin (such as English, Irish and Scottish) which can be written on one stave in standard classical notation.
One of the most important aims of abc notation is, that computer-based musical languages can be easily read by humans. In other words, with a little practice, it is possible to play a tune directly from the abc notation without having to process and print it out.

The default file formats are Windows Media Video (WMV), Windows Media Audio (WMA), and Advanced Systems Format (ASF), and supports its own XML based playlist format called Windows Playlist (WPL). The first generation Zune software (but not the current second generation software) which actually is a modified version of Windows Media Player, additionally supports AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) audio, MPEG-4 and H.264 video formats out-of-the-box.
