+README_LINUX.txt for PortMidi
+Roger Dannenberg
+8 June 2004
+
+To make PortMidi and PortTime, go back up to the portmidi
+directory and type make.
+
+The Makefile will build all test programs and the portmidi
+library. You may want to modify the Makefile to remove the
+PM_CHECK_ERRORS definition. For experimental software,
+especially programs running from the command line, we 
+recommend using PM_CHECK_ERRORS -- it will terminate your
+program and print a helpful message if any PortMidi 
+function returns an error code.
+
+If you do not compile with PM_CHECK_ERRORS, you should 
+check for errors yourself.
+
+This code has not been carefully tested; however, 
+all test programs in pm_test seem to run properly.
+
