Cursed MIDI Sequencer is designed for MIDI lovers and visually impaired individuals, providing a comprehensive sequencing tool that caters to both demographics.
If you're a fan of purely character-based applications, then you're probably familiar with the term 'cursed applications'. This name has its origins in the ncurses library, which is used by sequencers like CuSE that also utilize character-based interfaces. Additionally, these types of applications can be run on any terminal, making them ideal for networked environments where traffic needs to be kept low.
One of the reasons why character-based applications are popular is that they don't require mouse-based interaction. This can be particularly helpful if you find yourself switching between different pieces of equipment frequently. While graphical user interfaces may be more appealing to some, visually impaired individuals can find them to be a barrier. Screen readers are one solution, but they are only useful if the application in question makes minimal use of graphical symbols and mouse interactions.
That's where CuSE comes in – it's a MIDI-Sequencer that caters to both terminal purists and visually impaired individuals. Its character-based interface makes it easy to use with screen readers and braille-displays, while still being accessible to normally sighted users who want to run it on a low-end embedded device or over a network. So whether you're a seasoned character-based user or someone who needs a little extra assistance, CuSE is definitely worth checking out.
