'''RST notation''' is a [[notation]] mainly for [[just intonation]] that was devised by [[User:CompactStar|CompactStar]]. It is an extension of [[3-limit]] [[chain-of-fifths notation]] where prefixes are added to convey higher-limit commatic alterations. The prefixes used are "ruper-"/"rub-" for the 5-limit formal comma [[81/80]], "super-"/"sub-" for the 7-limit formal comma [[64/63]],  "tuper-"/"tub-" for the 11-limit formal comma [[33/32]], etc., going through a rotated version of the alphabet (RSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQ), which is a generalization of super-/sub- for [[64/63]].
