Hi, I'm pleased to annonce the release of Midish version 0.4.0. Midish is a MIDI sequencer/filter with a shell-like interface. This release provides significant improvements, including: * new simplified interface requiring less scripting * smarter and improved MIDI merger * new track and filter editing functions * native support for the ALSA sequencer (linux only) * more powerful -- but simpler -- filter * basic command completion in the readline(3) frontend * support for editting during playback/recording The old builtin functions have not been removed, thus upgrading from version 0.3.x to version 0.4.x is transparent. Linux users, must update their device settings, replacing the unix style ``/dev/midiXX'' names with the corresponding ALSA sequencer ports.
