'file' give the same output on my machine, but none of my media players get any sound. MIDI files are a simple format, right? I shouldn't need any special software/hardware? WinAMP and Windows Media Player act like they're playing the files but there isn't any sound. I verified that my volume isn't muted; I can play WAV files, MP3, etc. just fine. Don't know if this is really much of a show-stopper since the point of lilypond is to typeset the music, AFAIKT. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
