You wouldn't like it John. It doesn't have a command-line interface:-) >(And if it runs on a Mac running OSX, it'd probably be easier to port >to X-windows than to MS-Windows, though probably neither would be >totally trivial.

The problem would be that there's only some small bits of Quicktime on Linux, and BarFly is quite dependent on Quicktime Music Architecture. You can run the latest BarFly under Executor (Mac Emulator). I've only tried the Windows version of Executor, but I know that there is also a Linux version of it. Executor doesn't currently support QT, so you can't play audio, or export QT movies, MIDI or audio files, and pictures of the music can only be exported in PICT format. Apart from that, the editing, abc manipulation, analysis, display and printing of music all work fine. If you want to play with Executor, it's available as a one-month demo from <http://www.ardi.com>. Phil Taylor To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
