.ABC

ABC Music Notation

📌 The format definition is considered as a music file generated in the ABC language designated for musical notations. Typically, the .ABC resource stores the composition in a plain text ASCII shape. The noted object contents can be translated and put out in an actual score, as well as played back via an .ABC-compliant software tool. In appropriate circumstances the .ABC container can be seamlessly converted to the MusicXML representation by referencing to the Web service entitled as Abc2xml. This specific web-service can be also applied by MuseScore in order to import .ABC data resources in scope of the native app UI.

ActionScript Byte Code File

📌 Alternatively, the .ABC extension may relate to encoded files generated by the Flash compiler during compilation of ActionScript scenarios (.AS data objects). In these preconditions, the file structure would be usually composed of bytecodes for the scripts, which the compiled code is based upon and reconstructed to executable and readable form by the ActionScript Virtual Machine (AVM or AVM2). As a matter of fact, the .ABC resources are frequently made up and built by the runtime compiler. Hereby, the user is not able to even open, check out and review the file contents in the affordable way.

ABC Source File

📌 On the unaccustomed workflow, the specified format type may stand out as an application source code written on the specific ABC programming language. In this clause, the original resource category can be differentiated as an original replacement for the BASIC programming language. The ABC language has acquired a solid degree of popularity in late 1980’s-early 1990’s, while the first stable release of the same entitled compiler has seen the world in 1990. Particularly, .ABC serves as a high-level, structured, interactive coding practice, designated to be used instead of AWK, Pascal, or BASIC. Later the technology achieved a significant influence on the Python language.

Micrografx ABC FlowCharter 6 File

📌 This subtype of .ABC container is designed as a flowchart created and opened via Micrografx ABC FlowCharter 6. The predefined category of the actual format would contain spreadsheets, charts, diagrams, and maps. Particularly, the designed flowchart can be applied for business modeling and process analysis. At last, the .ABC extension is specifically designed to assist enterprises and organizations improve and model business processes on their accustomed activities and workflows.

How to open an .ABC file?

📌 You are suggested to use various apps to open the .ABC file contents, depending on the file structure, composition, and layout. If you are aware that your file instance has been generated within Adobe Flash Professional project, it is recommended to download and preinstall the suite in order to process and modify the .ABC file contents. In other working cases, the data sample can be operated by ABC code compiler, MuseScore package (related to audio score playback and composing), or dedicated iGrafx FlowCharter solution with business area of appliance, able to draw maps, diagrams and spreadsheets.
