[PD-dev] [PD] midiout / sysex on windows

[martin.peach at sympatico.ca]

I don't think sysex works on linux either; at least I'm trying to send using [midiout] using alsa midi and nothing is going through the interface, whereas [noteout] works fine. On Pd 0.42.5-extended2010105 debian lenny.
I think I should be able to send a list like:

[240 88 123 247(
|
[midiout]

...but it won't.
