MUDsong

MUDsong is an XML language for expressing songs in a way that can be sung on a MUD taking advantage of the varying capabilities of Clients, MUDs, and their characters. A MUDsong can be converted into a list of MUD commands, a list of client commands, an XHTML document, or a wide range of other forms.

Currently available are XSLT files to convert into XHTML, RetroMUD commands using say, and RetroMUD commands using bard emote strum. A second implementation is a Ruby script which produces bard or non-bard commands either directly, or wrapped with Tinyfugue timing commands so as to sing at the correct rate.
