These files are for Siren 2.7 running on Squeak 2.7. 

====Documents

README (text) this file
PDF files -- 1998 OOPSLA conference Siren paper and demo slides
.html files -- HTML pages for the Siren outline, the Squeak outline,
	and the Siren GUI tour

====Sources

2.X -- Previous versions

2.7 -- Current release

====Utilities

OMS.sit.hqx (BinHexed StuffIt Archive) The Opcode MIDI system

(in the utilities directory)

MacCompress.hqx A Mac program for handling UNIX-format compressed files (.Z)

MacTar.hqx -- a Mac program for handling UNIX format tar tape archive files

ALEX50.EXE -- Alladin StuffIt expander for DOS/Windows; allows DOS users to 
unpack BinHexed StuffIt files.

If you already have the OMS MIDI driver, you really only need the
virtual image files. If you don't have OMS, then grab the OMS 
archive file as well. If you want to re-build the VM, get the VM
sources. To file Siren into your own image, get the Smalltalk sources.

Please read the on-line documentation. There is an "outline browser" in
the top project with an extensive self-guided tour of what works in the
current Siren release. User suggestions are solicited as to what should
be included here

For more documentation, see http://www.create.ucsb.edu/~stp/publs.html
and follow the "MODE" links, or look at the files in the ftp directory
ftp://ftp.create.ucsb.edu/pub/Smalltalk/Music/Doc.
