MegunoLink decodes and processes data and commands using a custom protocol.
Messages are surrounded by braces ({
…}
). Each message includes a context identifier, command and parameter part. The parts are separated with a pipe (‘|’) character. The message channel is optional. The message format is:
{ContextId:MessageChannel|Command|Parameters}
.
The ContextId
identifies the context within MegunoLink, typically a visualizer, that will process the message. Context identifies are not case-sensitive.
