As I mentioned in the email I've just sent you, I just ran Dora
Colouring on my 12.5MHz ZipGSX IIgs for a little over 3hrs with music
and no lockups. It did blue screen eventually, but I'm pretty confident
that was my screensaver (Twilight II) which seems to blue screen
regularly when left running for a long period of time (no matter what
application is running).

It also ran for over 2hrs on my daughters unaccelerated IIgs this
morning also with no lockups.

I might release Dora Colouring as it is with a config file to disable
MidiSynth for anyone who might be affected by lockups. I think disabling
music for everyone by default is something I'd prefer to avoid if possible.

cheers,
Mike
