For anyone who ever worked with JCL, this is how the HES system was run. Found in Ted Nelson's archive: archive.org/details/TN_Manua… Also see archive.org/details/pertinen… page 291: "A Hypertext Editing System for the /360"

This was found by following a trail that started with a footnote to an ACM Hypertext 2026 paper being presented by @GaboHBeaumont , so we should appreciate the giants we stand upon who enabled us to do things like this, and draw upon the best ideas of the past as we go forward.

Ensbled midi in support in apple2ts. It probably should be a separate menu item in case performance is impacted.
