PD is quite useful for those wanting to test midi i/o on both windows 
and linux. We have had loopbacks without using hardware going between PD 
and csound on both platforms. Pretty easy to write convenient testing 
patches in PD as well ( ie displaying all throughput on screen, or 
automatically sending midi messages on mouse clicks, etc. )
