The automatically creates a web page Tune List.htm of links to up to 5000 MID, MP3, and WMA files in a folder to be uploaded to a site. Though there are of course copyright restrictions of even allowing others to play MP3 etc music tracks online let alone download copies, there appear to no such restrictions on the many thousands of MID file available on the Internet.

The code below is mostly straightforward, much based on kind help provided over the years by such as Alyce and Stefan. You will notice it can safely be compacted into a single file with Windows Iexpress wherever that is kept, as when first run it needs to locate the folder with all the sound files in order to save the HTML Heads.txt holding the headings, and Tune List.htm for uploading.
Notice there are Error traps such as warning if you are not logged onto the folder with the sound files, also preventing anyone using more than 10 headings, or 5000 sound files. Likewise the main window #h is closed when notepad is used. Those like me with even a limited knowledge of HTML should be able to change such as the colours or font size created with Tune List.htm.

Notice there are Error traps such as warning if you are not logged onto the folder with the sound files, also preventing anyone using more than 10 headings, or 5000 sound files.
