REACHING THE YOUTH HOSTEL
 
To reach the Youth Hostel from the railway station (very close to the airport
bus terminal), take the underground (metro) in direction La Rose up to the
station Canebiere-Reformes, then from there take bus No 6 up to the station
Marius Richard.  In case you are coming by car we recommend leaving the northern
highway (the one coming from Lyon) at Cinq Avenues, and then follow the enclosed
map.  Beware that there are two youth hostels in Marseille.  (Should you be
misguided, the second one is almost opposite ISTAR office!)

Does anyone have info on a standard (if one exists) for
MIDI files, and are there any public domain files available?
What is the format for the files?

I am working on a project in Hypercard (using HyperMIDI)
Please post replies here or through e-mail.

Greetings,

I'm seeking contact with SCORE users in North America who are
doing subcontracted typesetting, either start-to-finish projects
or or input work only, or are interested in doing such.  E-mail
first, I will contact you back by e-mail with more details.

Cheers,
