Re: [seq24-users] workflow questions

[Dana O. <da...@ub...>]

Yeah, that looks like it. Thanks. I'm an idiot. Why I looked through all
the menus and preferences options and such, and not that button, I have
no idea.

Is there any kind of document like a user guide or anything somewhere? I
looked at the man page included in the Ubuntu package, but then when I
saw at the bottom of the page, I am the author of the manpage... Forgot
I did that. :P

I am strongly considering looking at the source code to see if I can A)
understand it, and B) write some features that I want and submit them as
patches. But maybe writing documentation would be a better start for me,
so I don't end up trying to write stuff that already exists, and I just
don't know where it is... Is such a document already started? If not, I
may work on one as a part of my wiki project at UbuntuStudio.com, but it
would be free for Rob or anyone to take and use if it is deemed of
acceptable quality.

If I go with the feature patching route instead, it could take me years
to get into it and make anything worthwhile. I don't have confidence in
my abilities right now, even though I code Perl for my day job... But if
there was ever a project worthy of my time that I would actually want to
work on, it would be seq24. I prefer it in every way to Rosegarden, MuSE
and any others I've tried. It is the most important tool in a musician's
arsenal, for my genre and way of writing music.

Man, I ramble a lot... in short, thanks for answering my n00b question
so quickly, and I hope I can help in some manner in the future.

Perhaps I'll undergo a project of importing/converting my old MIDI files
from my RM1x into .s24 files...
