If I set the input device to the printer port with the IN#1 Basic command, how do I capture the input into an array or large string? Similarily, if I set the output device to the printer port with PR#1 how would I send the hex message F0? Or its binary equiv? Basically, this is my MIDI Librarian scheme. The device connected will be an Opcode MIDI interface. I plan to use my apple IIgs to save System Exculsive Dumps. Basically, all I have to do is put the incoming data into memory and the send it on back out. It seems simple, but I lack both my GS and MIDI interface currently (they are at home 400 miles away) so I can't do my normal hack hack hack till it works or I give up. So if anyone can give me some info, I will be able to try it out soon - I just have to bug another GS users and manage to borrow a MIDI interface from the music department. sigh. Thanks... Ken Morton
