gdigi on a Mac

[Sascha Handke]

Hi,

has anyone a hint how to get gdigi running on a Mac with OSX 10.7? I really would like to get rid of my VirtualBox with Windows 7 just to run X-Edit.

Thank you very much.

Cheers

Sascha

You would need to port gdigi to Mac OS X sound system as Mac OS X does
not use ALSA. All changes would be in gdigi.c file (getting some
portable wrappers in there and moving platform-specific functions to
separate file would be appreciated). Basically you need to provide
functions to list all MIDI devices and to read/send MIDI SysEx
messages.

Would PortMidi satisfy the requirements for portable wrappers?
