+# shell script wrapper for SBo games/opendune
+# written by B. Watson, licensed under the WTFPL.
+
+# this wrapper is needed because the game uses timidity in alsa client
+# mode for MIDI audio, but doesn't start timidity itself (it just tells
+# you to). so this script starts it, if necessary (and if possible). if
+# timidity isn't installed, we don't complain about it, just run the
+# game without it (the game will complain so this script doesn't have to).
+
+# if timidity or some other alsa client is running (if there are writable
+# MIDI ports other than 'MIDI Through'), we won't start anything.
+
+# when the game is through running, we have to kill off timidity if we
+# started it (not if it was already running). unfortunately timidity's
+# daemon mode doesn't write a PID file, and it forks so we can't easily
+# get the PID, so we can't use daemon mode.
+
+# the code in src/audio/midi_alsa.c of the game will actually connect
+# to the first writable, subscribable port it can find, other than
+# "Midi Through". so if the user's already running some MIDI daemon
+# like FluidSynth, the game will use it, and we shouldn't be starting
+# timidity here.
+
+# KNOWN ISSUE: if lashd is running, it sometimes creates a MIDI port that
+# doesn't appear in aconnect's list, but opendune will see & connect to
+# it. Result is that you get no complaint about timidity not running,
+# but don't hear any audio either.
