I have been using Dr.T's Tiger on an Atari ST for the past several weeks
and have encountered a large number of bugs. Has anyone made extensive use
of this program, and if so what has the experience been?
Some of the symptoms: Computer locks up when program is exited.
	Clearing all tracks and setting new song length to 8 measure causes
two bombs.
	Can't get meter set to 6/8 time. Always sets it to 3/4.
	Port assignments contain non-ascii characters instead of A-D.
	Attempt to Quantize whole track -> 2 bombs.
etc.,etc.

In general this seems like an interesting program, but it is very frustrating
in its present condition. I am using Midisoft Studio as a sequencer and
exporting Midi type 1 files to Tiger. There seem to be some 
slight differences in file formats, but in general must of the information
transfers back and forth.
