Package solfege-3.14.10-1

Solfege is an ear training program for X11 written in python, using the GTK+ and GNOME libraries. Eartraining is a big subject with many connections to music theory and performance of music, so it is hard even trying to make "a complete computer-based ear training course". But someone will hopfully find this software useful. A lot of efforts has gone into the non-english translation of docs and lessons: please set up the language environment properly, with e.g: $ export LANGUAGE="fr_FR"

* Needs X11: check if /Applications/Utilities/X11.app is there, or install it from the original DVD. * then, in a terminal, type: $ solfege * If you want to translate .midi files into .wav, install $ fink install timidity-nox Is not done by default because it loads 25Mb of sound patterns... * To benefit from the huge translation effort, make sure your language environment is set, e.g. with: $ export LANGUAGE="fr_FR" * Have fun, and see you in 10 years, when you pass all tests easily while watching TV...
