Indeed. There are lots of ugly music packages out there. I don't think many of them particularly intuitive to use. > I should start bugging them for a Linux port...

Err, your milage may vary there :-) I do have a Mac IIcx or something (it's second hand and a bit custom) with a 68040-25 and 36mb RAM, but all it runs is MacOS 8.1 for now. Some day I may port some of the music sources I have developed to Java. Includes some moderately decent notation display (although not suitable for a full-on notation package), as well as a MIDI file reader, Windows MIDI player, and some other stuff. Could be fun.
