mididump


NAME

mididump - dumps a MIDI file in a text format provided by MIDI


SYNOPSIS

 mididump filename.mid
 muscript -midi filename | mididump
 mididump filename.mid | grep patch_change
 mididump filename.mid > /tmp/filename.dump

 #! /usr/bin/perl
 use MIDI;
 my $newopus;
 do '/tmp/filename.dump';
 # $newopus is now a Midi Opus identical to the original filename.mid


DESCRIPTION

Dumps (displays) a MIDI file, in the human-readable text-format provided by MIDI's $opus->dump function.

Assuming you've installed MIDI, then perldoc MIDI::Event should document the format in which the various MIDI-events are represented.


DOWNLOAD

The current version of mididump is available by http at www.pjb.com.au/midi/free/mididump
To install mididump, save it to disc, move it into your $PATH, make it executable, and if necessary edit the first line to reflect where perl is installed on your system.

You'll also need to install the MIDI-Perl module written by Sean Burke.


CHANGES

1.3, 20130506, explicitly sets $newopus= so Perl can do the dump
1.2, 20060729, helpful message if MIDI-Perl not installed
1.1, 20060728, first working version
