Cornel wrote GMP, a GUS MIDI Player, from scratch. It's rough around
the edges, but still quite an achievement. His comments should carry
some weight, but I wish he'd be a little more polite.

*sigh*. In fact, that was my point. Oh well.

P.S. To everyone *else*:
Yes, indeed I do think this has gone far enough. I will shut up.

You can shave your head and build an alter to them for all I care. I'm not
denying you your right to follow Gravis. Do whatever you want. If you take
anything other than "praise GUS" personally, though, then you should try real
hard to get me off this mail list; I think the GUS-state is in sorry shape now.
I _will_ let you know about it if it looks like it's going to stay that way.

Heh. You make it sound like I should get an award or something.

I don't know what that means.

I've never heard of you. You're certainly welcome to call the BBS and
get whatever stuff you want.
