I was trying to rescue some dosemu code I liked, and that included your code in midid. I was porting the entire midid to timidity to give that code a new life. The work was going well with about 12 patches applied to timidity CVS, but suddenly the timidity project have died. You code was in the queue and I decided to port it regardless. The patch is available, but haven't made it in in time and now its too late. Well, at least I did all I could. :) > progress was fantastic over the last few years. Not really. We did some very nice progress only because what we had before, was a plain crap, so any progress was becoming remarkable. But still the amount of problems dosemu has, is infinite. For example, being linux-only is not all that bad, but being x86-only is not even funny. I was thinking about to write a portable dynamic translator, but fortunately I haven't started it, or I would have spent the months of work in vain, like I did with the sound code.
