SubjectExperimental Diamond Marimba web site using Java
Csounders:

I have been experimenting with Java applets in web pages recently, and have
created a web page with a Diamond Marimba on it. When it works, you can run
your mouse over the bars of the marimba and play the tonality diamond. Of
course, it doesn't always work...

The web page is off my home page at http://pws.prserv.net/music1 . The
applet depends on Java 1.2.2 and Swing. No commercial browser supports this
today. To see the applet, you have to download and install the SUN java
plug-in, which is a bit of a bear to get installed. Instructions are on the
web page.

The goal of the applet is to use a tonality diamond as the input to a
composition tool. I've got a bit more to go to do this, but perhaps
someday...

If the effort to support the SUN plug-in is too much, you can see a screen
shot of the applet on my home page.

Prent-
	Your tonality diamond applet works great, and the plugin set up
easily. Congrats.
