[Media_api] PM and Windows Registry

I read the documentation in portmidi.h regarding specifing  
recommended I/O devices in the registry with interest (lines 221-263  
in my copy, immediately above the declaration of  
Pm_GetDefaultInputDeviceID() and Pm_GetDefaultOutputDeviceID()).

However, when I read the comments at Pm_GetDefaultOutputDeviceID(),  
it looks like the registry thing hasn’t actually been implemented yet.

Is this correct? Has anyone got PortMidi to use Registry (or even  
Environment) settings?

I need to get PM talking to other software via some kind of Virtual  
MIDI Cable. I’m experimenting right now with Maple VMC (http:// 
www.hurchalla.com/Maple_driver.html), but am open to other  
suggestions. The main question is how to get PortMidi talking to  
something other than Microsoft GS...

Thanks for any advice,
Peter
