Re: [DIYbio] Re: [Biopython] Thermocycler program file format(ting)

I think a JSON representation makes more sense, personally; that way,
it's easily consumed by any programme or translated easily back into a
human representation. I may break out the aforementioned OpenPyCR
functionality into a translator from plain->JSON.

Suggested format:

{ "headers": {
"title": "My favourite program",
"created": <unix-timestamp>
},
"program": [
{"type": "step", "title": "Heat Lid", },
{"type": "step", "title": "Hot start", "block_tm":95, "hold":
<seconds>},
{"type": "loop", "steps": [<program steps in same format>]},
]
}
