Nitpicking: https://github.com/thelowsunoverthemoon/mahler.c/blob/4ebfe8... Should that type have been mah_acci instead of int? mah_acci doesn't seem to be used anywhere. Also, have you considered using (edit) designated initializer syntax for some of the function calls that take in structs as arguments? https://cppreference.com/w/c/language/struct_initialization.... struct mah_scale scale = mah_get_scale( (struct mah_note) { .tone=MAH_C, .acci=MAH_NATURAL, .pitch=4 }, &MAH_BLUES_SCALE, notes, MAH_ASCEND, NULL );
