I Have made a midi reading library in pure lua and I have been thinking of releasing it. I have recently re-wrote it and added comments to almost every line making it a good resource to learn from. However I feel like if I released it here then it would not be used for very much or nobody would reply to my thread with stuff that is anything more than pleasantries and that would be very sad. So I have come to ask If I released it on here what would you do with it in computercraft? If I see some awesome suggestions I will probably release it here on the computercraft forum for people to use and have fun with!

It's great that you made a neat library.

It's not great to come to the forums seeking attention like this, and asking if people are going to like something before you even release it. Attention-seeking posts are not allowed, and this does fall under that category.

If you made something cool, that's great. If you decide to share it, even better. It does feel good when others use and appreciate the things one has made. However, hobby coding is going to be more rewarding if you make it about personal edification and gratification, rather than making things to seek the praise of other people.
