[CM] fun with CM + Linux

[Rick Taube]

I think your Timidity hook is what I should use as the default on linux.
but before i take your example, look at  sco.lisp for a hook that tobias wrote called play-sco-file. his hook  allows options etc to get passed to the hook. if you want you do a simlar function for midi/timidiity you can adapt his csound example and  ill use it.

yes for now just put your definition:

(define (linux-play-midi-file ...) ...)


in your cmiinit.lisp  file. but ill make yours the default.
