What is a JML file?
A JML file contains Juggling Markup Language (JML), an XML-based format used to describe juggling patterns for juggling simulators and visualization programs, such as JugglingLab. It stores information organized by standard XML tags about throws, catches, and hands that comprise the simulation.
More Information
JML provides a structured way to represent juggling sequences, including the timing, order, and movement of objects in a pattern. Hobbyists visualizing juggling concepts and researchers studying mathematical and physical principles behind juggling patterns are the most likely users to encounter JML files.
When a user loads JML files into a juggling application, a JML file defines how the juggling motion appears, allowing them to view and adjust the pattern in real time. This makes JML a helpful format for jugglers who want to practice complex sequences, experiment with new ideas, or share patterns with others.
How to open a JML file
You can open JML files with Juggling Lab. To open a JML file, select .
Opening a JML file with a text editor
Since JML files store plain text, you can view them with any text editor. Some options include Microsoft Notepad, Apple TextEdit, and gedit. You may need to change the .jml file extension to .txt for the text editor to open the file.
When opened in a text editor, you can edit the properties of the JML file. However, if you incorrectly edit the file, you may inadvertently corrupt the JML file.
