Now doesn't that sound silly when you read it out loud? I don't
understand why so many programmers insist on using 0-15 for MIDI
channels when most hardware uses 1-16 (correct me if I'm wrong).

BTW, I've started hacking on patch to ghostess version 20061127 to add
LASH support. I realize now that it's not a very good idea,
considering the "configuration" file ghostess writes out. Do you have
any plans on changing that or the initial configuration code before I
spend any more time on it?
