Thanks! It works fine. Now I'd like to find a nice continuo organ
soundfont.

Have a look at Jeux organ soundfont, which is the best one I've ever heard. I'ts made by someone who seems to be well versed in organ history and tradition:
http://members.aol.com/realmac/jeux1.htm
Its creator says:
"The JEUX soundfont is a collection of sounds designed for use with Creative Labs' AWE32 and similar sound cards that support the SoundFont 2 file structure. I have tried to duplicate the characteristic sounds of real pipe organ stops (including individual ranks, mixtures, choruses, and effects), with a particular goal of assembling a collection of stops suitable for MIDI realizations of organ music written before 1750. Through careful selection of stops, I have found it is possible to realize music of later composers as well, for the palette of tone colors I have included is very broad."
The files are compressed using WinRar. I'm assuming there's some utility for Mac that can decompress them (I think you can download a shareware version of Winrar for Mac).
