Juce is nice, great for demanding graphical / audio / MIDI processing  
when Java doesn't quite deliver.

I'd be happy to help out with some coding or advice, Java or  
otherwise but to be honest I still don't understand what you're  
aiming for here!
I've reread the first email but still as confused. I thought you  
wanted a dynamic display showing something akin to a VU meter?

If you only want to open and display a static text or html page based  
on MIDI input (cc or sysex) then that should be very easy to do in  
Java. A little more effort for PDF since you need a separate library.  
The app can open a window (or several) and update the content as MIDI  
comes in.

If instead you want to issue a system command then that's even easier  
- no need for a GUI at all, just a config file mapping MIDI to commands.

Or have I got it all wrong?

ps as for implementing a command line in C++ it's probably easier  
than you think, you call int system ( const char * command ); and  
hope for the best!
