     The parameters for TimidPM.exe are exactly the same as
timidity.exe, except you don't have to include any files to be
played.  When the program starts up the list contains the files that
you entered in the command line (You can use wild cards).  You can add
to this list with the Open button.  You can play MIDI files by
selecting them and pressing play or double clicking them.  You can
also play .wav, .avi or any other file the MMOS/2 system can play.
This includes Windows .avi and .mpeg files with the proper OS/2
addons.  All the controls that work with the MIDI files work with
MMOS/2 files.

The buttons work as fallows:

Open: Brings up a file dialog to add files to your list (no drag and 
drop, yet)

Pause: Pause playing a file. Becomes Resume when a file is paused.

Play: Begins playing the file selected in the list box. If another 
file is currently being played it will stop it imediately to play the 
new one.

Stop: Will stop playing the current file. Unlike the pause it forgets 
the current position.

Messages: Bring up another window that displays the messages that 
would nomally be printed to the screen in the text mode version. If 
there are a lot of messages to display, it may take a while to pop up.
If new messages are generated while this window is open they will be 
automatically added, but you may have to scroll down to see them.

Back: Moves the position being played back a second (Doesn't really 
work, use the slider).

Prev: Will play the file in the list previous to the one 
currently playing.

Restart: Well restart the  currently playing file from the begining.

Skip: Will play the file in the list after the one currently playing.

F Fwd: Moves the position being played forward a second (Doesn't 
really work, use the slider).

     When Auto Play is checked and it comes to the end of a file it
will automatically start playing the next one in the list.  When it
reaches the end of the list it'll wrap around to the beginning.

     The time to the left of the slider gives the current position of
the file and the time of the right side gives to total length of the
file (usually a few seconds low).  The slider gives a more graphical
indication of the position of the Midi file.  The large ticks mark 1
minute points and the smaller ticks mark 30 seconds.  When a file is
playing you can slide the slider and it will jump to that point in the
file.

     At least one person had the problem that none of the buttons, 
except the Pause button, worked. If you encounter this, or any other 
error, please let me know. I will try to resolve it. 

     The PM version of the program is only designed to work with DART
output for playing MIDI files, so use the command line version for
outputting to files.  Watch

can email me at doconno@cc.umanitoba.ca.

TODO: (in addition to the TODOs in README.OS2) Add tracing support (so
you have see your music (it looks neat). Add a menu bar. Add support
