# foostudio

Foo Studio is an environment for live-coding algorithmic music in C. Inspired
by [code-music-studio][]. Currently Linux-only, as it depends on ALSA and
inotify.

## Usage

```
# Compile the program
make

# Run the studio
./foostudio tune.c plughw:0,0

# In another terminal, edit the music file. When you save it, foostudio will recompile and reload it.
vim tune.c
```
