although you said in a previous post that you don't like
auto-accompaniements, and although you say that you are not a programmer, I
think that your progs are very good. I have not yet fully tested horgan and
gmorgan, but I like them. I play live music, but sometimes I find that a
auto-accompaniement is useful to lay down an idea for a new song. And
sometimes it's just fun and relaxing playing this way :)
Once again, thanks.

Hi thanks for the interest of my programs ... i think you are the only one :-)
I want to explain a little history ... of topic .. sorry ... yes .. i pay my
bills playing for the people, when i was young .... Neron was emperator of
Rome ... i was make a test in the college, for apptitudes to select some kind
of university career, and my artists aptitudes was 0,00014% i will never
forget this number .. :-) and for engeniering or some like that was 99% ..
anyway i was decide to be musicien in this life. Now, many years after this i
know i was make a big effort .... years ago i was discover the computers and
... i like it. Well ... i'm not programer ... i need to learn millions of
things before i can say something like that. I only need to see the code from
other people, perfectly structurated, and i dont know how to do it. Well, in
fact they are many many of basic things i really dont know it. And .. i dont
have anyone close who can explain me :-(
Maybe all of this was the causant of the terrific graphic design of my
programs :-), and .... four your resolution problem ... i have one good new
an one bad new, the good one was ... i was never think in this problem but do
the main window with all the widgets resizable i think will not be a big
problem, i will try to do it, but the bad new ... is .. the comming version
0.02 has another "main" window for batch play .. like Band in a Box ...and
resize in that window maybe will be a problem.
I'm developing gmorgan, and i have a large TODO ... but after 0.02 maybe i
can stop improving and i will make some patterns, this prog without patterns
is nothing.
Thanks for all.

Hi!
But, <warm fuzzy voice> we are all here.</> :)
Though, having written the programs you have already provided, you are most
definately a programmer!!
If you are worried about your capabilities to structure your
programs/programming, there are ways to deal with it, like:
- program program program (you are already doing that), the more you do it,
the better you will become.
- read other peoples source code to get a feeling how people solve things
(especially with regards to structure), this is a hard thing to do though
(atleast it is for me).
- read some books/guides about programming
- try to formalize your programming: divide it into design and implementation
phases:
* in the design phase you think mainly about what you want to accomplish,
and how to do it in a bigger picture so you don't have to tear it apart
later when you add more features.
* in the implementation phase you actually do it, when you start this up you
should know what parts are needed.
Big software projects often have even more phases, like a requirement phase
that occurs before the design phase.

not for long with your tempo! :)

*laugh* but then again, you can prove anything
with statistics ;-).
and for
engeniering or some like that was
99% .. anyway i was decide to be musicien in

programs :-)
I haven't been able to test your programs...yet, but I looked at the screen
shots some days ago and.....well... the screenshots are small, that may be
the reason, but it seems the colors may need to be changed a little ;).
, and .... four your resolution problem ... i have one
good new
an one bad new, the good one was ... i was never think in this problem but
do the main window with all the widgets resizable i think will not be a big

If you go for more band-in-a-box type functionality I promise to do backflips
:)...oh well... in theory anyway ;)...

New subject: [linux-audio-dev] Newbie has sound card problem
I am a Linux newbie who has recently installed RedHat9 on a Dell
Optiplex GXa, 233 MHz, 128MB.
Booting from the Dell diagnostics diskette and running tests confirms
the Crystal CS4236B integrated sound card is working properly.
At the RH9 installation the card was correctly detected by isapnp.
I hear some alert beeps through the speakers.
dsp, audio and mixer are present in /dev/ with access flags crw------
BUT......
cat <soundfile> > /dev/dsp (or > dev/audio)
returns the message "bash: /dev/dsp:No such device" and no sound in
spkrs.
ALSO the Gnome sound recorder wont record
AND the Gnome Volume Control returns the message "Unable to open
audio device /dev/mixer"
AND the Gnome System Settings/Soundcard detection reports "No sound
card detected"
I've read the Linux Sound HOWTO but it doesnt help. (perhaps I dont
understand it).
Where to from here?
