Re: Use of Amidi and/or adeqdump inside gambas

[Hartmut Wagener <hartmut.w.wagener@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a new synth and it can be used with some wb-page-interfaces. The 
amidi-commands seem not to work. The use of amidi will lead to the same 
result as in the terminal, withoutz getting any info what is going wrong.

I need to have a look at other programming languages that can do a 
programming with libraries to remake the amidi-tool itself.
