The CommonMusic.app bundle is really just a shell, it has no influence
on Midishare being installed or not. I think the easiest solution for
the moment (easiest for ME not for you...) is for you to build a
cm.image on your machine with Midishare installed (just as install.html
decribes) and then move that image to CommonMusic.app/Contents/MacOS/
In other words, replace the currnet cm.image in CommonMusic.app with
your image that contains Midishare, CLM, CMN etc.
Once I turn in the manuscript for the book (Oct. 1!) Ill think about
other possible solutions. The best would be to have a real installer
that sets stuff ip the way you want and provides a cm.image with CLM +
CMN + MIDISHARE already included.
Id be interested to know if Linux allows you to do something similar --
ie. associate an icon with a set of script file(s) . If so I could
design a similar binary distribution for Linux. Students in my class
like the bundle, and they were working with the Listener before I told
them anything about Emacs.

send it to what, Midishare or to a midifile? The easiest thing is to
just use a 'midimsg' object with its 'msg' slot set to
(make-program-change ...)
