Steven Yi's excellent article on encapsulated instruments suggests ways of designing instruments to make them more portable in the first place.

> Hey guys, I'm in Dr. B's Csound class right now and there's a student who is killing @ Csound but has had a lot of trouble combining his orcs/scos because he's blind. Here's the situation and then I will propose a possible solution:
> -He's working on a Windows machine because Jaws for Windows can only read the old WinSound screen to him (which can only read orcs and scores, not .csd files)
> -The new WinSound and QuteCsound can not be read by Jaws.
> -He makes all of his music with note lists (and his music is just righteous)
>
> Thus he could use (and I think all of us could benefit from) a utility that would merge .csd files, and orcs and scos. Ideally it would renumber the instruments and the corresponding score lines, and would renumber f-tables to accurately represent the instruments.
>
> I understand that this may be a lot to ask and I thank you for addressing this issue because Csound is really something that can be used by the masses. Since it's mostly text, it can be read to my friend who is visually impared, which other synthesis/sequencing programs cannot (due to the excessive GUI). I see this as an opportunity for the community and program to grow, thus I implore you to ask yourself if you can help make this possible. Thank you again for your considerations, and making such a wonderful/powerful program available and inviting.
