Betreff : Re: [hatari-users] removal of --midi-in and --midi-out options

Hi,

When Hatari is built with PortMidi, MIDI devices are defined by port 
names in the GUI (and config file).  PortMidi expects data for those 
devices to be real MIDI data!

Only when Hatari is compiled *without* PortMidi, there are --midi-in and 
--midi-out device file options (and Hatari does not care what data is 
transferred through them).

Currently Hatari does not support both at the same time, it needs to be 
built separately for each use-case.  As real MIDI device use-case is 
much more common, releases are built with PortMidi for Mac.
