I'm not sure what's happening here, but it seems to me that timidity used to be offered as an application in itself, whereas now it seems to be acting as a backend. Of course I could be way off beam. I wonder if timidity is what is being used if I open a .mid file in a browser? Looking at File Associations, though, mid and x-mid files are just linked to Netscape plugin viewer (nsplugin), while midi and x-midi files are linked to the same and to kmid. Anne
