A working MIDI setup (MIDI keyboard connected to the computer) and a DOS program that uses MIDI input. I can't share Score, it's commercial software that's still being sold. But the Voyetra sequencer is available for free: http://support.turtlebeach.com/site/kb_ftp/340.asp Obviously this program follows a completely different strategy for reading MIDI data. For a sequencer low latency and accurate timing are essential. For notation software this obviously isn't an issue. I guess Score is taking a more lazy approach. > > P.S.

I'm aware that there has been conflict between Stas and other contributors (or a single maintainer?) in the past which caused him to resign as a maintainer. I don't know the background of this, but he certainly is knowing the internals of Dosemu very well. I would find it pretty sad if Stas' commitment wasn't honored and the bug fix would get lost because of personal resentments. I would really like to promote Dosemu and see more people adopting it.
