   I have been putting all such downloads into /downloads  (duh).
Then, using MC withMC-Menu, I have been extracting tar.gz's to subdirectory. 
Looking at the subdirectory in one MC panel, I have been copying the files to 
matching existing directories or making the directories where they don't 
exist. I did not put REALPLAYER in the path, but I edited the icewm menu to 
give the path to realplayer. And it worked, so I didn't try to mend it.

    I hit the send button before I was finished. So I sent a second email 
with the URLs.

   Realplayer will only play .ra, .ram. rm amd MP3 files. It will not play 
MIDIs.

   I am sure it is in one of the SW7.1 packages, but it is also in JP's 
sons.tgz.
