No - at least not in the sense of some shared data structure that different music editors were all capable to work with, as was the case with fx MOD files and derivatives.
C64 music is typically distributed as executables which contain both play routine and music data (cf. also this answer). Many different players and editors exist, some native, some for &...

When I implemented this in my MS-BASIC alike I ended up using 14 characters as the comma field and keeping track of where I was on the line and then padding to the next 14 characters. I think I tested this on either a 4K or 8K MS basic and that was the "best" result I could come up with on a system without an defined screen size. I suspect this was ...

In MS-BASIC
a comma advances the cursor to the begin of the next tab 'field'.
Size of tab fields is implementation depended
Size is usually a divisor of line length (*1).
Bottom line: It doesn't matter as tab field and line length are synchronized anyway.
Now, in a more basic way, BASIC does not have an assumption of line length at all (*2). It's pretty ...

Before GEOS and the 1351 mouse became popular for the C64/C128, the most notable (non-joystick) pointing device was the famous Koala Pad.
There were a few programs for the C64 before GEOS that provided fairly complete GUI style interfaces. The Print Shop and Doodle come to mind, as well as the very early (1982) Pinball Construction Set. Because there was no ...
