    I just talked to Roger, and here's the scoop.  The original version
was developed for PC's, and is still the only "official version", where
official means, I gather, that the code does what the documentation says
it does.   Also, there are several (unofficial) versions avaliable, here's
the complete list:

Machine	    Compiler		Person who did port 

IBM PC	    Lattice C		Roger Dannenberg	(official version)
IBM PC	    Microsoft C 5.0	Hal Mukaino		
Mac	    Light Speed		John Maloney			
Amiga	    Manx		Jean-Christophe Dhellemmes

   Sorry, no Atari ST version.  There are significant differences between
each version.  I know there's a multi-tasking Amiga version; I THINK that's
the one being distributed.

   To order, make out a check out to "Carnegie-Mellon University" for $20,
and send it to 

	CMU-Midi Toolkit
	Studio for Creative Inquiry
	Carnegie Mellon University
	Pittsburgh, PA 15213

   Specify which version (machine and compiler) you want.  The $20 is just to
cover CMU's cost for disks, copying documentation, mailing, etc.  The stuff is
public domain, so feel free to distribute it freely.  

    In case you're wondering, "Studio for Creative Inquiry" is the new name
for CMU's "Center for Art and Technology".
