Re: [orca-list] Question about an accessible midi composing software

[André L. Baldo <supermalavox gmail com>]

Hello Sebastian,

Thanks for the answer. I'll have to check out Midge and Tuxguitar, since by 
what I remember, RoseGarden is made for KDE so, not accessible with Orca. 
Actually, still didn't try out QWS with Wine but if all else fails, I'll do 
just that!

Thanks anyway,
André.

Have you tried it yet with wine? I know currently of midge [1] where you can
write midi files, but this might be a bit more than you want. Rosegarden and
Tuxguitar are also capable of exporting as midi. There's also tuneit from 
Mario
Lang [2], but I don't know exactly whether this is something you need, 
because
I never tested it myself.
