Re: linux's SNDCTL_SEQ_RT_ENABLE and perl's MIDI::Music

 I have an impression that ALSA is not *competing*, my
understanding was that it is a fully-compatible
alternative which compatibly fulfills and further
extends functionality of OSS.

 I expect that ALSA provides a compatible mechanism,
but perhaps the correspondig symbol is called
SEQ_REALTIME_ALSA_OPT or something like that (I don't
know, that's why I'm asking.)

 Further I've noticed that ALSA had a lot of OSS
compatibility code.

   thanks
