	'''RST notation''' is a [[notation]] for [[just intonation]] and [[regular temperaments]] that was devised by [[User:CompactStar\|CompactStar]]. Iit is an extension of [[3-limit]] [[chain-of-fifths notation]] where prefixes are added to convey higher-limit commatic alterations. The prefixes for formal commas are ~~a generalization of~~ the ~~widespread usage of~~ "super-"/"sub-" for the 7-limit formal comma [[64/63]], but with the first letter mutated. They are obtained by going through a truncated version of the alphabet (RSTUVWXYZ) and appending -uper/-ub. Thus the formal comma for 5 has the prefix pair "ruper-"/"rub-", 7 has the prefix pair "super-"/"sub-", 11 has prefix pair "tuper-"/"tub-". These are abbreviated as R/r, S/s, T/t, etc. uuper-/uub- is ~~shortened~~ to uper-/ub- for ease of pronunciation.

Thus the formal comma for 5 has the prefix pair "ruper-"/"rub-", 7 has the prefix pair "super-"/"sub-", 11 has prefix pair "tuper-"/"tub-". These are abbreviated as R/r, S/s, T/t, etc. uuper-/uub- is modified to uper-/ub- for ease of pronunciation. The main advantage of this system is that it is easily typable and memorizable, although it is very arbitrary.
