New Projects: Go programming bindings for Csound API, GMask

Francois Pinot has reported on the Csound users mailing list of a new Csound API binding in the Go programming language, as well as a Go version of Andre Bartetzki's Cmask entitled Gmask. His original post is below.


Hello,

I've been playing with the Google Go programming language http://golang.org/ during the last few months. I really like this new programming language and I tried to use it with Csound.

I wrote go bindings to the Csound API (https://github.com/fggp/go-csnd6) and I adapted Steven's API examples to go: https://github.com/csound/csoundAPI_examples/tree/master/go

I also wrote a go version of Andre Bartetzki's Cmask program: https://github.com/fggp/gmask. Cmask was published under GPL, but Andre kindly allowed me to publish Gmask under LGPL to be more compatible with the Csound status. Thanks to Andre.

If some csounders/programmers are interested in those packages, I'd be glad to see their use of them.

Regards

Francois
