Re: .SEQ files and YSEDITOR

2013-02-01 by mopuss_y

Thanks for the prompt reply, Charlie, and the kind offer of help. Sorry for my delay getting back.

Does that mean the YSEDITOR is open source? I didn't realise. I have done some programming before - I understand this program is written in C++.

However, I was hoping that it would be easy to change the sequence or that .SEQ was a generic format like .MID. Easy as in not something requiring a re-compile from source. I guess not. Not that a recompile is a hard thing, but you know what I mean! :) Something available to the average end user.
