Hello everyone. I love this website here:
http://parlorsongs.com/issues/2007-3/th ... eature.asp
I can use it to obtain free sheet music. However, I can only use it in my Windows XP, because it requires a "Sibelius Scorch" active X control plug-in available here:
http://www.sibelius.com/products/scorch/index.html
that only works in Windows. They do not make a version for Linux.
Is there a Scorch plugin for Puppy Linux anywhere? Or, anything that will enable me to view those musical scores in Puppy?
Also, to hear midi files on that website, I need a midi plugin for Puppy. Does anyone know where I could get one?
Is this Active X plug-in available for Puppy?

I don't know about ActiveX in Linux (it's one of those proprietary MS things, and also a big security problem from what I understand). But for MIDI, you'll want to either check out Timidity, or Jack/qctrl. Timidity is simpler to set up (it's available through PETget). Jack/Qctrl lets you set up an Alsa server or some such thing, which facilitates some of the fancier features in certain audio programs. It doesn't have a frontend for playing MIDI though, so you'd need to configure another audio program to connect to the server and play them, which I know nothing about. It might lead to a more compact and simple setup in the end though, since you could theoretically listen to everything through a single media player.
Timidity is does offer that server feature, but the version packaged for Puppy wasn't compiled with it, so you'd have to recompile it.

Thanks for the suggestions, Willhunt. I will look in to ies4linux and Wine.
In truth, this may be over my head. Although I am an A+ Certified PC repair tech, I am fairly new to Linux, and it is confusing. However, I will look in to it and see what I can do.
Thanks for all the help. Very much appreciated.
