============================================================================
                       MidiWatcher v1.1 by Ed Mackey
============================================================================

Yes folx, another one of my silly trinkets appears on the net ;-).

MidiWatcher is for people with MIDI keyboards.  It requires the midi.library
v2 or higher by Bill Barton (not included).  It should run under almost any
version of the Amiga's OS.

Basically, this program sits in the background and watches your MIDI IN port
for certain tunes.  When it recognizes a tune, it runs a program.

For instance, if I need my directory utility up, I can do one of three
things:  (1) I can search through subdirectories for its icon (takes too
much time and is boring), (2) I can press a ToolManager hotkey (takes much
less time but is still boring), or (3) I can reach over and play a little
jingle on my MIDI keyboard, and up pops MegaD.  The third choice is clearly
much more fun than either of the others ;-).

NEW!  Version 1.1!!  You can have it do silly things if you mess up a tune.
If I play the first few notes from the MegaD tune, and then get a note
wrong, my computer will let me know ("STUPID!!  YOU SO STUPID!!").  This
is much more fun than v1.0 which would silently ignore you.  You can tell
MidiWatcher which tunes have "failure" programs, what they do, and how much
of a tune must be played before its "failure program" becomes armed.

**** Old v1.0 save files work fine with v1.1. ****

Well, you get the idea.  Have fun!
                                           --Ed.
