I'm pretty handy with it, and it wouldn't be significantly more difficult to make it a web-based tool than a standalone command-line app. Also I know (used to know) some about music, back in my wild guitar-playing youth... I already had it in my mind to write a perl program that would convert a MIDI file to Manuel's 2-voice sound driver data format, this project could sort of get rolled into that one. I should warn you, I've got a lot of other stuff going on (still working on my silly spaceship game, and trying to build carts with limited soldering skills, and working on a standard macro library to complement vcs.h), so it may take a while to get this done, or even to get a demo site up (especially now that my #@$#^$%& cable ISP decided to filter my port 80). Still, I'm interested in doing it, if you want to send my a CSV-exported or SQL dump format file of your database (no proprietary MS Access format, though, I don't pay the microsoft tax... whatever you send me, I'll first have to get into PostgreSQL or maybe MySQL) Brian --- If a trainstation is the place where trains stop, what is a workstation? - Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/
