A "maintenance" version of XMusic is now available for anonymous ftp
from either of these sites

	sioux.stanford.edu (36.83.0.100), /pub/XMusic.tar.Z
	expo.lcs.mit.edu (18.30.0.212), /contrib/XMusic.tar.Z

The new version is hardly different than the last version running
under R3.  Mostly the differences are to accommodate changes in the
Athena Widget Set.

XMusic is a graphical front end to the Csound music compiler (Csound
was written by Barry Vercoe at the MIT Media Lab).  XMusic allows you
to create instruments ("orchestra files", in Csound terms) by
arranging icons in a diagram you create.  XMusic will compile a Csound
orchestra file from your graphical diagram.

XMusic only handles half of Csound compositions; once you have created
the orchestra file, you still much write your own score file to tell
Csound what notes to play on which instruments.  This is likely the
simpler of the two tasks, however.

If you are interested in obtaining Csound, it is available via
anonymous ftp from ems.media.mit.edu (18.85.0.6).
