Well, they're mostly SOUND-classes. There is some basic ability to deal
with MIDI, but there is more to music software than that :)

I still didn't get that one to work properly >:) I also don't know if you
could actually deal with native windows with it.

Having a not-so-portable Squeak OS doesn't mean that Squeak
programs or images won't be portable anymore.
Right now, Squeak is the project of a lot of seperately working
individuals, adding more and more classes to the system. This is okay,
but for bigger projects (like Squeak Music) a more cooperative effort
would be desirable >:)
