Well it's longer scale (though not by much) so I guess it does. Let's
face it, it's a baritone if you want to call it a baritone...or a
chocolate coated armadillo if you want to call it a chocolate coated
armadillo (though the latter appelation may require the use of larger
quantities of drugs than the former).

And balalaika, violin and penny whistle codes.
Perhaps a code to indicate that you can't play that particular instrument
properly would be useful. I'd need to make extensive use of it anyway.

That is due to a proposed extension to the music section, which I've
taken the liberty of adding to my code, just to remind Mike every time
he sees it.
Basically, if you just ignore everything between the [ ] it should
come out correct - the square brackets being chosen deliberately so
that you can impliment avoidance without upsetting any () additions.

Just for the record, here is what I proposed to Mike. As far as I am
concerned, the final say is up to Mike, and if he says no, I'll drop
it.
The remainder of this post can be considered an RFC(UKMGcode)
The problem, I felt, is that the music section is a bit
non-descriptive when it comes to the date and the degree of
'intensity' of the music. So I proposed this.
Each Music section can be followed by an optional set of square
brackets. In these square brackets you can do two things. Firstly,
you can define a date range. eg
59-62 = 1959 - 1962.
or
6x = the 1960's
This will be easy to parse because it's limited to two digits. The
disadvantage is a possible argument as to whether 00 represents 1900
or 2000. The baseline has yet to be set and we need further
discussion of this.
Secondly, you can rate the extremeness of your musical taste using ++,
+, - and --.
which runs on a scale ++ = hardcore, and -- = the poppy end of the
scale.
So if you like 60's bubblegum pop, early Beatles etc, then you would
put
R[6x--]
Extreme Punk would be
P[++]
etc...

Both actually, but I'm making an effort to get back into the UKMG
swing of things. I've started turning up on the irc server, and plan
to do the next UKMGPU too.
Gosh, you're going to be pretty sick of the sight of me soon enough.
;)
I figured that I have worthless opinions that need to be shared with
an uncaring, disinterested public! (I'm ready for my close up now, Mr
Deville).
Plus I've been practicing hard to drive the speed of my stone hands up
from "catatonic" to merely "painfully slow". So it's time for a break
from the wood-shed.
[ext., day: pale, hunched figure emerges, blinking, into the light...]
Glad you liked the app, I was a bit worried about it's portability,
but it seems to be ok on most win32 platforms. If I get around to
knocking out a new version, I may introduce an identity
deduction-thing for a bit of a laugh. I'll pop out a gtk or LessTif
version in a while for our Unix bretheren.
Hey ho, take care and have fun.

Very nice, but just one point.
On my translation, (apart from me being rock,rock,rock,rock) it says
"Song writing is something useful (occasionally best left to others)."
Which is NOT what I'm saying. I'm saying that I do write a lot, but
I'm also in a covers band. Perhaps that ought to read "Writes own
stuff but plays covers as well":

Ah, that because you used brackets, rather than a slash...
S++/- should be what you want instead of S=(--).
Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock is the failure to parese the square
brackets, but I'm sorting that. Updates to the standard will be
included tonight, breaking out the compiler (and thesaurus) now.

Problem is that you have to do it in such a way that you won't need to
update your age every year.
As for the customisation, good point.
Perhaps we might try putting a C after the guitars to indicate the
customisation?
ie E6c1++?1
Where "c" is customised, 1 is the number of customised guitars, and
the range of customisation is --,-,+,++ (from slightly - couple of
stickers to ++ new electrics, paintjob, active pickups, unrecognisable
origin...)

Which should parse under the shiny new version 1.2 compliant UKMG
coding tool. A couple of points to note, however, are that the X(blah)
instrument field cannot contain spaces or it will override the more
powerful grammar of
UKMG/[<g_list>][<space>[<i_list>]][<space>[<pref>[<space><pref>[...]]]]
So "UKMG/B X(harp)" will parse just fine, but "UKMG/M[++] X(comb and
paper)" will, unfortunately, not. :( Sorry.
