Rather than take screenshots of a notation program, to show notes, I&#8217;ve installed <a href=\"http:\/\/www.partitionnumerique.com\/music-sheet-viewer-wordpress-plugin\/\">Music Sheet Viewer<\/a>. This is supposed to support <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iaml.info\/plaine-easie-code\">Plaine and Easie Code<\/a>, which is meant to be a dead easy way to input a few lines of notes. However, I couldn&#8217;t get that to work, so I input the Plaine and Easy Code into a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verovio.org\/pae-editor.html\">free online converter<\/a>, which turns it to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.musicxml.com\/\">MusicXML<\/a>. It supports this format without a hitch.  I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;m doing something wrong and will be able to simplify this soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For maths formulas, I tried very many plugins. The one that finally worked was <a href=\"http:\/\/www.holoborodko.com\/pavel\/quicklatex\/\">QuickLaTex<\/a>. As the name implies, it uses LaTex syntax for layouts. I&#8217;m under the impression that this increases accessibility for screen reader viewers, although perhaps not as much as MathsML. I tried many plugins nad this is the only one I could get to work. Of course, MathML is in Jetpack, but so is a bunch of SEO garbage that I&#8217;d rather live without.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, I&#8217;ve enabled the ability to upload SVGs. I used <a href=\"https:\/\/wpcode.com\/\">WPCode<\/a>, which is a code snippet library. It added a function for SVGs. This was better than trying to do this by hand, especially as it worked the first time without breaking my site.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My next step is to write or deploy a little javascript toy to let people try out different equal temperaments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the hope of making my text here more accessible, I&#8217;ve installed a few new plugins.
