   TiMidity++ 2.13.2 for OS/2 version has been updated to preview release 2:   
   http://users.socis.ca/~ataylo00/programming/ports/#timidity   
      
   TiMidity++ is a music player for MIDI files and similar formats.  This version   
   is a 'standalone' player; that is, a normal application (not a MCD or codec).   
      
    This port includes a Presentation Manager GUI interface, which is based on   
   the old TimidPM build originally written by Darwin O'Conner for TiMidity   
   version 0.2i (I've improved and updated it a bit).   
      
    While this build seems to work well, it has not been tested very widely;   
   also, there are more updates planned for the GUI, which is still a bit crude.    
   Therefore, this build is classified as a "preview" (beta) release rather than   
   a finished product.   
      
    Unlike preview release 1, this version is provided as a full WarpIN install   
   package.  It should be installable over version 2.10.4.  (Note that the WPI   
   includes the file TIMIDITY.CFG, so if you have your own configuration file in   
   the target directory, it will be overwritten unless it's newer than March   
   2008.)   
      
    NOTE: As with all versions of TiMidity, you WILL need separate audio patch   
   files (either SoundFonts or GUS patches) in order to play MIDIs properly.  I   
   recommend the EAWPatches collection, which I have also made available as a   
   WarpIN package (on Hobbes); the TiMidity WPI will link to it automatically if   
   it is in the same directory.   
    See the program release notes (available on the website) for more information.
