Hi Ken,

I highly doubt the M100 could handle such a protocol but the first thing I thought of was MIDI; that is *the* electronic standard for defining and playing music. Again, not sure if the M100 has the horsepower to parse or play music from MIDI, but it was just a thought.

(belated) Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!

Regards,    Bert

Hey gang,

I was trying to use the Linux based tools I wrote to create something a little more advanced than WCCARD.BA.  It turns out getting the M100 to orchestrate a piece that is a bit more expressive is more challenging than just entering the notes from sheet music.  It's pretty amazing how much interpretation an artist imparts that isn't on the page when actually playing / performing!

Seems like to get a similar affect, I would need to extend my little sheet music parser to include expressive components in addition to just raw notes.  Makes me wonder how programmers developed music for the M100 back in the day when the M100 was the only computer they were using.
