[PD-dev] Reliable MIDI library for Windows?

[Thomas Grill]

Hi David,
the devel_0_39 branch of pure data completely relies on PortMidi for  
all platforms.
We (the vibrez team) found that to work perfectly also for sysex,  
realtime etc. messages under Windows.
It's fairly easy to provide a patch for vanilla PD, provided one has  
got time and interest.
