I thought that I had posted before, but I was having some trouble getting mail

It has certainly worked properly in the past. I may have missed the exact
version that started
messing up, but it's difficult to believe that *nobody* noticed it. I'm looking
at a composition is
version 2.18.2 that displays properly in landscape.

!! That makes it work! I don't get it, it seems to me that the "letter"
'landscape is misbehaving.
But, good enough, I'll use "letterlandscape" from now on. Thanks!
I have another question. I get five of these messages:
warning: MIDI channel wrapped around
warning: remapping modulo 16
I am-generating a MIDI file, but the only line in the source file talking about
MIDI is
\midi {
\tempo 2=100
}
in the score block. What's going on.
