Alfred Faust on ANF Open source: Bars&Pipes Pro 2.0
Alfred Faust has released an email of Todor Fay, the former chief programmer of Blue Ribbon Soundworks Inc., on ANF that is dated 9. December 2000. In this email Todor Fay announces the release of the source code of Bars&Pipes Pro V2.0. Besides bugfixes this will make the continued development of the sequencer possible.

For now Fay is collecting together the source code. For this he needs help from one or more Amiga developers with an up and running Amiga developer environment.

«I think we can work towards a better solution:

I've gotten clearance to release the source code for Bars&Pipes to the Amiga community. This means several things:

1) Known bugs can be fixed.

2) Perhaps y'all can create special hooks for real time services (timer, midi in and out) in the Amiga code so it can connect more directly with the services in Windows. It's pretty amazing that timing works at all, given that it is running on an emulation of the audio interrupt (kudos to Brian King!). 'Course that would require changes to WinUAE to support this.

3) Port Bars&Pipes to Windows. If people want to collaborate on such a project, I will very gladly provide advice and assistance.

At this point, I'm collecting together the source code. I need to work with one or more developers who have Amiga dev environments up and running to help put this together. We need to make sure everything is there and compiles correctly.

Any volunteers?
