Both executables are compiled with 4-point interpolation. Use -4 option to
switch to linear interpolation if you suffer from stumbling playback.

You will need ncurses for OS/2 package if you are going to use ncurses
interface. You can get it from www.leo.org and it's mirrors. Unpack
the lib/terminfo subdirectory of the package into a separate directory
and specify TERMINFO environment veriable pointing to the directory. 
E.g.: TERMINFO=d:/etc/terminfo


		Known problems and limitations

- Timidity looks for timidity.cfg only in the current directory. Specify
  path and name of timidity.cfg with -c option if you run timidity not from
  it's directory.


			Compiling

To re-compile this port you have to download the original source distribution
