No.

It's trying to read 8.3 regular DOS files.  The program asks for a
beginning filename and the number of files to be processed.  So that if
I specify:

file1.mus 3

the program knows to use file1.mus, file2.mus and file3.mus.  It seems
to get a start on the first file, because it prints:

Reading - FILE1.MUS
    3 bars,  9.500 beats. 

at which point it hangs.

I did try this but have had no success.

Thanks for your help.
