Hi DOSers,

Today, I decided to release publicly my latest project: DOSMid.

   http://dosmid.sourceforge.net

DOSMid is a MIDI player for (free)DOS. It's a real mode application 
designed to run on very modest hardware configurations. It plays both 
MIDI and RMID files. It's released under a BSD license.

DOSMid is not a software MIDI emulator, thus it requires a MIDI-capable
hardware available via the standard MPU-401 interface. Many sound cards
provide such interface, although some need an additional 'wavetable' 
chip to produce actual MIDI sound, or a special TSR (like AWEUTIL, for 
SB32/SB64 cards).

DOSMid is still in a beta phase (v0.5), but its stable, and plays all my 
MIDI files right. It doesn't come with many features yet, though.
I tested it only on my SoundBlaster 64 AWE card, as well as with my MIDI 
piano keyboard, and it worked well with both. Unfortunately I don't have 
any other MIDI hardware, but there's no reason I am aware of that would 
make it non-functional with other hardware, as long as MPU-401 
compatibility is there.

enjoy!

Mateusz
