COMMAND

humsplit -- Calculate standard scores of numerical data spines.

humsplit [input] [> output]

humsplit manages multiple-segment Humdrum files and data streams.

Input arguments or piped data which are expected to be Humdrum files can also be web addresses. For example, if a program can process files like this:

       program file.krn

It can also read the data over the web:

       program http://www.some-computer.com/some-directory/file.krn

Piped data works in a somewhat similar manner:

       cat file.krn | program

is equivalent to a web file using ths form:

       echo http://www.some-computer.com/some-directory/file.krn | program

Besides the http:// protocol, there is another special resource indicator prefix called humdrum:// which downloads data from the kernscores website. For example, using the URI humdrum://brandenburg/bwv1046a.krn:

      program humdrum://brandenburg/bwv1046a.krn

will download the URL:

http://kern.humdrum.org/cgi-bin/ksdata?file=bwv1046a.krn&l=/brandenburg&format=kern
Which is found in the Musedata Bach Brandenburg Concerto collection.

This online-access of Humdrum data can also interface with the classical Humdrum Toolkit commands by using humcat to download the data from the kernscores website. For example, try the command pipeline:

      humcat humdrum://brandenburg/bwv1046a.krn | census -k
