Hardware midi in Linux (through pmidi)

Hello. I was able to use hardware midi through pmidi in Linux by changing the define in extmidi.c to "/usr/bin/pmidi". One problem though, it only plays the midi once (no looping), but that's not a problem in-game. Anyway, it'd be nice if it was possible to do this without hacking the source code. A config file option would be great; there are other midi players out there, and they're not always located in /usr/bin.

Great work, btw =)

I added the flag MIDI to makefile, so you can choose the path there. It's saved in makefile.config too
So far it's in the svn version only. Go ahead and try it out :wink:
